  • 1.  Question on landed cost

    Hello,

    We are tracking landed cost with GP. When creating an enter match invoice for landed cost I see two PO's that have the same PO number. One has a dollar amount and the other has a zero balance. I seem to not be able to get rid of the PO receiving that has a zero dollar amount. The zero dollar amounts are growing. We have a barcoding system that we use to scan in our raw materials. Is this a scanner issue or GP itself? Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful.

    Hi Ben, 

    Are you matching ALL the landed costs to invoices? Its possible that there could be multiple costs/vendors attached to the PO, or even at the item level. If you run an items received/not invoiced under the purchasing>Reports>analysis. They will show up on there. And then can be removed as a $0 invoice if there are no costs associated or if it was entered in error.

    Hi Matt,

    Thank you for the suggestion. This worked. Is there a way to make sure the zero receipt does not show up with the original one? Or is this a barcoding issue? I mentioned in my original post that we have a barcode system that we use for checking in inventory. We also do landed cost with this as well.

    I have not used barcoding, but that should not be the issue. By the info I have, sounds like the costs are tied to the items. Look at an item or 2 from the zero receipt and go to Item Quantities Maintenance. Plug in your item# and look at the bottom to see if there is a Landed Cost Group ID. If there is, every time those items are rec'd, a landed cost will be created. If not, maybe its the barcoding or the Landed Costs were done at the PO level. Which if you look at the PO, there will be line items for the landed costs.
