FOB = Product price from suppler +markup +Transportation+insurance cost. one change to yours FOB = Production Cost + markup+ transportation cost + insurance cost FOB calculations would need a destination for transportation cost and if insurance is wanted So I would think FOB would be part of the Shipment type in the (purchase) order header This would also then have a shipment section that the customer would pay like in the example. not sure this part needs to be in the OTTB version. any way I believe all the entities are there for this.
