Manual Calculation Apportioning

You must identify the lines to apportion the landed cost over. These have to be lines for items of the type 'goods'. This is achieved using control desk functionality.

For example, in a simple scenario one invoice contains lines for both goods and charge items.

  1. Within Purchase Invoice Entry select Action > Line > Landed Costs
  2. Select the filter type Purchase Invoices and enter a control desk filter to be used. When called from purchase order entry or movement order entry, this does not have to be done as specific filters have already been defined.
  3. Select Action > Control Desk.
  4. A filter is displayed. Enter the required data.
  5. A results form is displayed. Select and highlight the lines over which the costs are to be apportioned.
  6. Select Action > Review. The batch program form is displayed.
  7. Select Action > OK. The selected lines are shown on the Landed Cost form.

The control desk filters and results forms can be amended as required.
