Adding Landed Costs to Inbound Shipments That Are Already Received

Scenario

Users would like to add Landed Costs on Inbound Shipments that were already received.

Solution

Users cannot add Landed Costs on the Inbound Shipments that were already received. This is because once an Inbound Shipment is received, there will be Item Receipts created for each of the Purchase Order which have been received. Item Receipts are posting transactions and the ability to make changes into multiple previously posted transaction retroactively, will require a lot of GL impacting changes to be made.

As a workaround, users may update the Landed Cost amounts on the Item Receipt Level, to do so user may do the following steps:

1. Open the Item Receipt Record
2. Click Edit
3. Go to the Landed Cost Subtab
4. Select the applicable Cost Allocation Method
5. Enter the correct Landed Cost Amount on the preferred Landed Cost Category
6. Click Save
7. Check the GL Impact to see the landed cost posted
