Is there a way to add a freight out charge to the margin calculation of gross margin much like adding a landed freight cost to incoming inventory from a 3rd party freighter?  I have a freight price on the sales invoice and would like to offset the actual freight charge in the calc of gross margin.

With the Margins - Show margins on orders option activated in the Configuration Menu of the Sales App, you get this:


1 - margin for the line item based on the product sales price and the product cost.

2 - margin for the order based on the total of the sales prices for each line ($85) minus the total of the cost prices for each line ($54.95) divided by the total of the sales prices for each line.

Note: you can also see that you can edit the cost of the freight.


So what you get then is a margin per product (1) and a margin per order (2).  In this example the margin on the product is 40% but since the margin on the Freight is 0.5%, the overall order margin is 35.35%

Given this, what needs to be different?  I am unclear on what you are asking.
