The customer orders from you. Transportation of the goods is carried out by a forwarding agency, for example, by post or UPS (The post is used as an example below). The goods are delivered to the customer with an invoice and the customer pays upon delivery.
Triggering cash on delivery
You enter the forwarding agent as the payer in order entry and this ensures that the forwarding agent is determined as a selection criterion for shipping.
Note
Determining the forwarding agent from the payer can be set in Customizing for partner determination. If, however, you want to use different determination of the forwarding agent, e.g., via the sold-to party, then you need to create a new partner type as forwarding agent for cash on delivery.

Order entry
You trigger the cash on delivery transaction by entering the post office as the payer.
