Per rule 7.4 : Attaching or recalling a support unit to or from an HQ or combat unit will use up freight points, to include using port freight points if the transfer is over a body of water."

I am transferring loads of support units from North Africa to Mainland Italy using the Support Unit Detail window (NOT the "Assign Support Unit Button" in the HQ or Combat Unit window) and I have not seen any decrease in Port Capacity (shown by clicking "F3 Mode")

Is it normal ? How is the usage of freight points deducted ?

It uses freight points, not port capacity (as the freight points already used port capacity). This is an abstraction. We're not 100% sure, but expect that the receiving port would expend freight points.
