landed cost - cost calc by on extended cost - in matching invoice process

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Appears that landed cost allows you to calc cost based upon item extended cost during the shipment (receiving) process which is fine if you have estimated landed (freight) costs.  But if you do not have estimated landed costs is there anyway to calc cost open extended cost during the match invoice process?

    I have a client with the exact same case and have always argued with them about this. Regardless of how the system works, is it possible that you ship items without having a rough assesment about the landed cost, shouldn't that be included as a primary part for the costing unit when calculating the profitibility of the product.

    I do have some doubts about this specific poibt from a business perspective.

    From the system point of view, the landed cost should be entered on the shipment level, then wheb the actual invoice arrives, you do the matching to update your cost layers accordingly.

    Yout feedback ia highly appreciated,
