Field help (SHIPCPRAMT)

Help common to functions: Shipments and Shipment pre-receipt. This field is also displayed, but not determining, in the Order pre-receipt function.

The fixed cost per unit is initialized to the one of the order and can be modified, except in the Shipment pre-receipt function.
The management of this field depends on the method used to determine the landed costs and on the entry transaction used. When it can be entered, this value, which must be a positive value, is expressed in the company currency.

Reminder on landed costs:

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.
