Reconciliation Additional Charge
A reconciliation record with charge_type additional_charge carries an additional_charge object. This section describes that object.
Present only when charge_type is additional_charge. It describes a fee the carrier applied that is not a weight — a remote-area surcharge, an address correction, a handling fee.
