Hi Experts,
I have a query, my customer wants to create a generic Forwarding agent to use within country deliveries for local delivery companies. for example: To ship small sample shipments in Taiwan(from one CM to Taipai office)
They have forwarding agents like UPS and FedEx, but the deliveries are done by local delivery companies, which they don't want to redirect to FedEx or UPS. They want to use a generic forwarding agent code for all local delivery companies.
Since this my first time dealing forwarding agent issue, please light me up.
Thank you in advance.

Yes.
It is possible and may be beneficial (depending on Customer requirements) in some cases.
For example at one of my client, the Forwarder partner is mandatory in Delivery document. The forwarder is determined from a Custom table based on Route, Ship to Party and many other non-standard factors. The Deliveries are created via Background Jobs and some time the Forwarder is not available in Custom Table.
In such a case we default a Dummy Forwarder to facilitate the Delivery to be created.
What is the exact question you have for the Dummy Forwarder?
Thanks,

How are the Deliveries that need a Dummy Forwarder identified?
If the Forwarder is determined from the Route, then yes you need a separate Route for such deliveries. Are these specific Customers? If yes, then a separate Shipping Condition will help you to determine a separate Route for such Customers / Deliveries.
Regards.
