    Hi Benjamin,

    I'm not an expert on this topic, however I can share with you what I know about:

    Charges allocation: these are miscellaneus charges that you estimate will be part of your item cost at purchase order creation time. Here you might include all the charges that you know you will have. This process can be done BEFORE posting the vendor invoice. Allocated charges will be part of your financial cost (depending on how you setup your misc. charge code).

    Charges adjustment: AFTER you post the vendor invoice, the only way to adjust (add or reduce charges) is through the "Charges adjustment" process. However at this time you will only see misc. charges codes that are setup as "Item - Main Account" (you won't see "Item - Vendor" charges because they were supposed to be included in the amount of the invoice already posted). This extra cost won't be part of your financial cost, you will see it as an adjusment to the transaction and you might need to run Closing and Adjusment job (in Inventory Management module) to adjust other trasactions related to this.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi benjamin84

    In a nutshell, the allocation is used before you invoice updated the PO, the adjustment thereafter.

    Best regards
