Field help (ITMCPRAMT)

The management of landed costs makes it possible to quantify the routing costs of the goods ordered from a supplier and to allocate them to the products upon order, receipt or invoice. These costs are used for the calculation of the purchase cost and stock cost.
The evaluation of these costs can be performed according to one of the two following methods:

• global method in which a Landed cost coefficient is applied and/or a Fixed cost per unit is taken into account,
• method in which a set of costs detailed in a cost structure is taken into account.

Only one method can be used, the choice of this method is performed at the level of the product management.

Use this field to enter a fixed cost per unit, expressed in the same currency as the Base price, that will apply to the purchase unit of this product, defined in the Units of measure section. The value entered must be a positive value.

When adding a new product, the default value is the fixed cost per unit defined for the assigned product Category.

When adding a new supplier, the entered value is used to load, by default, the fixed cost per unit for the product-supplier record.

Only one method can be selected to calculate the landed costs. If a cost structure is entered, entering a landed cost conversion factor and/or a fixed cost per unit triggers the erasing of the cost structure, after validation of a warning message.
