Misc. charges on return purchase orders
There are freight charges for some items deliveries. We add the freight charges as misc. charges on the purchase orders, the misc. charges will be posted to the item and add the charges to the item's cost. There is a connection between the misc. charges and the order item in the Transaction origin (AP - Journals - Invoice - Lines - Misc. charges - Voucher - Origin). And we can print this misc. charges transaction from Inventory management - Reports - Transactions - Adjustments
There are also freight charges when some items will be returned to vendors. We do the same way as above, but the misc. charges seem not posted or added to the item's cost. There is NO connection between the misc. charges and the order item in the Transaction origin (AP - Journals - Invoice - Lines - Misc. charges - Voucher - Origin). This misc. charges transaction cannot be printed from Inventory management - Reports - Transactions - Adjustments.
Can someone explain the reason? Thanks you!
BTW, We add misc. charges after the purchase orders were invoiced through AP - Journals - Invoice - Misc. charges - Adjustment.
The Misc. charge code setup:
Dr. Item
Cr. Ledger account (for a ledger account for freight charges)

I have the same question (0)Ignoring all systems if you receive 1 and then return 1 the impact on the inventory cost is zero, uplifting the inventory cost would have no impact, it would have to update the receipt prior to using this cost to take it out of stock.
This is probably the reason, on an inbound it will impact on teh COGS and margin so it makes sense to apply it, but not in this scenario - my question would be is it really not posted? You say "seems" would be interesting to know where it goes it it goes anywhere!
The freight cost will still be seen financially through the posting of the PI for the service.
