Allocating Landed Costs
Before You Start
Set up your estimated landed costs on the Purchase Order Landed Costs, Goods Receiving Notes Landed Costs, or Transfer Order Landed Costs form. Then add line items to the purchase order or transfer order.
Allocating the Costs
On the Purchase Orders, Goods Receiving Notes, or Transfer Orders form (or their associated Landed Costs forms), select . There is no form for this activity; the system works behind the scenes to allocate the freight, brokerage, duty, insurance, and local freight you set up on the Landed Costs form across all line items of the purchase order or transfer order.
You can see the results by viewing the PO or TO line item's Cost tab.
If the activity is selected from the Purchase Orders or Goods Receiving Notes form (or their associated Landed Costs forms), the landed costs are distributed across all PO lines associated with the PO or every GRN line associated with the GRN header. If the activity is selected from the Transfer Orders form (or its Landed Costs form), the landed costs are distributed across all TO lines associated with the TO header.
After Receipt
After receipt, the remaining landed cost activities take place in Accounts Payable.
