When you receive stock on purchase orders, you may add third party freight charges to factor the freight cost into the C3 Landed Cost of the products.
This cost will be reflected in the cost only if your system is set to update the landed cost before the A/P invoice is received. You can check this setting in your Company Master: Pricing/Costing tab > Update Landed Cost in P/O Receipts w/o A/P Invoice. If this option is "N." then the C3 Landed Cost will not update to reflect the Third Party Freight until the A/P Invoice for the receiving is entered.
Third Party Freight is the only part of the receiving that can be changed after it is invoiced to Accounts Payable. You may enter third Party Freight can only if there is a quantity received. If no quantity is received, the system will warn you that the freight amount entered will be cleared upon saving.
