Hello Odooers -


We are a trading company importing many containers a month and want to add the landed costs e.g. Duty, Management Charge (A % we use to pad the cost price), Freight, Clearing to the Cost price of the items. These additional landed costs are paid by us to the local vendors and Government not to our supplier hence I don't want these adding to the supplier's payables.

I've tried creating landed costs on:


1) My bill

2) Inventory > Operations > Landed Costs.

The problem is that the while the 2nd option works, it shows me that the profitability is now the Landed Cost.


How do I solve this so that the landed cost doesn't impact profitability? Additionally, if I don't know the exact landing cost for e.g. for clearing costs and enter an estimate how do I offset that with my actual vendor payment?

You should use Landed Costs for duty and freight and these can be entered at any time.    These are expenses that should increase Cost of Goods Sold and so reduce profitability.

Management Charges are different, and shouldn't be entered either as Landed Costs or on the Vendor Bill.  I'm not an accountant, but these seem like overhead costs.
