Customer Order CustomsValue isn't transferring through to the Shipment Line's CustomsValue field on the pro forma invoice, even though it's documented as inheriting from the Customer Order — how do you get this transfer (and ideally the whole value) to populate reliably and automatically?

Answer

Two things need to be true for CustomsValue to actually transfer from Customer Order Lines to Shipment Lines: the Customer Order Line's CustomsValueCurrency field also needs to be populated — CustomsValue alone isn't enough, since IFS only performs the transfer once a currency is set alongside it — and if you want both fields populated automatically rather than entered manually, you'll typically need a Custom Event plus a workflow that generates CustomsValue on the order line, plus a second workflow that populates CustomsValueCurrency on the order's Delivery section. Only once both fields are actually populated does the data flow through to the Shipment Lines as expected.
