The purpose of this option is to allow you to override, under specific circumstances for a given part or parts, duty codes that have already been defined in the Uplift parameters option of the PC Multi-Source menu. These uplifts are used in conjunction with the Receive/delete order option within Purchase control.
You should create one record for each additional Duty override code required using the Customs code as the unique identifier to link to the part(s) concerned. The customs code must match the customs code on the part record for the required part(s) in order to create this link.
