At the moment, ShopView does not have a dedicated field specifically for miscellaneous charges such as freight, shop supplies, or other additional fees. While this feature is being developed, you can use the following methods to add these charges to a work order.
Method 1: Add Freight (Taxable)
Use this method if you want the charge to be taxed based on your shop’s tax settings.
Steps
Open the Work Order.
Add a Zero Labor Line.
Click the three dots (⋯) and select Request Part.
Set the Source to Found.
In the Description, enter the name of the charge (for example: Freight or Shop Supplies).
Enter the total amount in the Sell Price field.
Click Save.
The charge will now appear on the invoice, and tax will apply automatically based on your configured tax settings.
Method 2: Add Freight (Non-Taxable)
Use this method if you do not want tax applied to the charge.
Step 1: Create a Charge Part (One-Time Setup)
Go to the Parts tab.
Click Catalog.
Select Add New Part.
Name the part something like Freight or Misc Charge.
Click Save.
Step 2: Add the Part to Inventory
Add this new part to your inventory.
Set the Cost to $0.00.
Assign it to a Tax Exempt category.
Click Save.
Step 3: Apply the Charge to a Work Order
Open the Work Order.
Add a Zero Labor Line.
Add the Freight / Misc Charge part to that line.
Enter the total amount in the Sell Price field.
Click Save.
Because the part is assigned to a tax-exempt category, tax will not be applied to this charge on the invoice.
