Landed Cost Template
The Landed Cost Template module helps businesses manage import expenses by letting them create reusable templates for freight, customs, and transport charges. Administrators can easily turn this feature on or off in the settings. Inventory teams can quickly apply these saved costs and split methods to new landed cost records with just one click. This saves time, reduces manual data entry, and makes inventory valuation faster and more accurate.
Features
Custom Landed Cost Template Configuration
Design and configure reusable landed cost templates by defining specific expense lines, including freight, customs duties, insurance, and handling fees. Users can set default split methods such as by quantity, weight, volume, or equal distribution and assign the correct financial accounts for each cost component. This flexibility allows businesses to accurately model their unique logistics structures and ensures precise financial tracking across all imports.
One-Click Template Application
Instantly populate active landed cost records using the dedicated 'Load Cost Template' action button. Selecting a pre-configured template automatically imports all associated cost lines, split methods, and predefined values directly into the active document. This automated workflow eliminates repetitive manual data entry, enforces calculation consistency, and significantly accelerates the cost allocation process.
