Applying Estimated Landed Cost on Item Receipts

Line items on receipts that are generated from a purchase order have the same landed cost templates as on the originating transaction. You can still change the templates on the generated item receipt, however, they are not going to match those on the originating transaction. This change recalculates the estimated landed cost for the updated line items.

Refer to the following guidelines for estimated landed cost on item receipts:

• When you save transactions with invalid templates or templates not mapped to items, landed cost estimates are not calculated for the affected line items. All fields related to the template are left blank.

• When you change the template for partial item receipts, discrepancies on landed cost estimates may occur between the initial and succeeding item receipts.

• When you generate item receipts from purchase orders through web service or scheduled scripts, note the following. Landed cost templates used for the items and landed cost estimates are carried over.

• You can switch from estimated to real landed cost per line item or per transaction. For more information about using real landed costs, see the following topics:

  • Entering Landed Cost on a Transaction

  • Landed Cost Allocation per Line
