Chapter 20: Working With PO Additional Charges (WPAC)

Purpose: Use Purchase Order (PO) Additional Charges to change, delete, display or create additional charges for purchase orders or vendor charge backs. Type of additional charges that can be added to a purchase order detail line or vendor charge back include freight, brokerage, commission, duty, import, surcharge, or "other" fees.

Posting costs: You can identify a General Ledger (G/L) Account number for each type of additional charge. In purchase order entry or maintenance (fast path = MPOE), you can enter the additional charge as a unit cost or a percent that will be applied against each unit on the purchase order detail line. The actual charges (for freight, brokerage, etc.) are updated at PO receiving. When working with vendor charge backs, you enter additional charges as a unit cost.

Vendor/item assignment: You can also define additional charges that apply automatically to the vendor/item price (See Chapter 22: Working with Vendor Items (WVNI)). The additional charges defined for a vendor/item price are listed on the Merchandising Cost Report.
