Freight and Shipping

We currently work out of Business Central and I think our process isn't efficient. We are entering freight charges under the vendor and not attaching the purchase invoice to the sales shipment. What is the correct process in this scenario?

    Hi 

    I have seen many methods. it is all depends on company practice and accounting department need. 

    I personally prefer that shipping charge add to PO as item charge then as a result be part of item cost. But many company does not follow this practice. 

    For invoice also I prefer that they get attach to Posted Sales Invoice. But again this can add lots of work to your team.

    Hi, If this fee needs to be allocated to the cost, Item Charge is recommended.
