ReportHi, I am looking for the best way to handle freight charges against a line item in purchase order processing and wondering if Landed Cost is the only way to go.
Our purchase orders may include a variety of products at a variety of weights. i.e. 10 type A widgets at 100 lbs, 2 type B widgets at 5 lbs.
Our process thus far is: enter the standard PO (here we can enter freight but I believe this is against the entire PO, not the line item??)
Receive the item, we may or may not know the cost of the shipping per item, but it appears that to use Landed cost, it must be a preset amount set in cards for Landed Cost.
Match the invoice to the receipt. This is where we know the actual cost of the item. If we have "guestimated" the freight cost on the receipt, it is difficult if not impossible to change.
It seems that I am missing something. There should be a way to add the freight cost to the item on the fly so that we can see what we actually paid for the item at the time we purchased it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
