Working with freight contains the following steps:
1). Generate inventory.
Fields available to specify number of freight units on "Create Inventory" pages for tour/transit.
2). Create "Freight" product.
Fill Products > Add Product form and specify freight parameters. Trip = trip associated with this freight. Freight units = number of freight units for 1 product (see description below).
Set value for "In stock" field as large integer, eg. 1000000.
3). Front-end. Book "Freight" product.
"Freight" products are visible only for sales agents and administrators. You'll need to select trip date/time and quantity. Total number of booked freight units = [quantity] * [value of "Freight units" field on product add form]
4). When you book freight product, SKU field contains trip name, date/time and number of booked freight units.
5). After booking, inventory for freight units will be changed. You can see inventory changes on "List Inventory" page. In case of order cancellation inventory for freight will be restored.
Also you can see report with information about total freight units/ booked freight units for each trip: Orders > Freight Report.
