Landed Cost when Receipt is scanned

Hi. We use a third party bar-code scanning application to Receive against PO's. We want to start using Landed Cost to record a percentage of tax payable to the same Item Vendor, but there is no capability to add this to the Receipt with the handhelds.

We don't want the users to have to go back into each Receiving Trx to update the Landed Costs. Is there a way to have LC apply automatically?

There is just one Landed Cost ID we set up that adds an a percentage to each line item that must be part of our Inventory value, must update the Item's current cost, and must leave the Vendor Price as is. We do not want to have to create a separate LC ID for every vendor for the same charge.

This works for all manual entry of Inventory, Misc and non-inventory items but we can't get it to work at the vendor invoice only stage, or with the scanners.

RE: Landed Cost when Receipt is scanned

I was able to test this further and it works if the LC group is assigned to the items. Nothing is required on the Receipt - inventory is accrued including landed costs. Invoice/Match requires a line item for the LC but no matching and with the same result as we had hoped for :)
