Does anybody have any solutions for Landed Cost when Advanced Receiving is enabled? We need to be able to associate a Landed Cost from a separate Vendor Bill to the IR and add the costs to the Item, but when we go to link the transaction under the 'Source' dropdown on the Landed Cost tab, it doesn't let us select the other Vendor Bill. I'm told that this is because of Adv. Rec

Do you have a memo or reference no. In the landed cost bill? Do you have a landed cost category selected in the landed cost bill?
j
Super simple fix. Thank you Luis. Didn't realize the Ref No. had to be filled out.
So it lets me select the other Bill now, but I get an error
You have attempted to allocate landed costs to a transaction using an allocation method that results in no allocation for any lines in the transaction. The allocation method you chose is Value. To correct this problem, go back to the transaction and choose a different allocation method, or modify the items/lines on the transaction so that there will be some cost allocated to the lines.
it is the same error for all allocation methods.

There is setting somewhere that says Allow line level landed cost, i don't remember exactly where though
j
Its on the transaction itself, but checking that box only means we can split the landed cost across individual lines, we need it to allocate to the whole order
so we utilize the Landed Cost tab rather than the per line option
s
is this box checked?
j
No, but we don't want it to be per line, it needs to be for the whole order
or does the preference still need to be enabled?
I enabled it, just to test, and I sitll get the same error
s
hmm TBH, I haven't worked with landed cost in awhile, but when I did that was one of the biggest issue that preference was unchecked, having said that, look at SA 1114 and 1119, might point you in the right direction.

Is the landed cost box checked in the item record?
j
It’s an Other Charge item. Box doesn’t exist. But the items on the IR do have the box checked
Second vendor bill for freight charges is Other Charge item. It lets me select the vendor bill from the IR when linking the transactions but when I save it I get the allocation method error now
l
Yup I meant the items on the IR. Is the landed cost box of the Inventory items checked before creating the PO?
I'm asking this because in my experience checking the landed cost box has a prospective effect.
j
Yes they were. I can double check and redo the PO just in case
