Reduce manual effort and have accurate inventory valuation

Many distributors and manufacturers struggle to keep up with the dynamics of importing goods and the flexibility required in cost allocation methods. When goods are imported, it is necessary to capture the additional costs - such as customs charges, handling and taxes, to determine the landed costs of imported goods.

Landed Cost helps to simplify and streamline the often laborious and time consuming task of tracking shipment costs. The module enables these tasks to be completed efficiently across all shipments and will significantly reduce the amount of manual effort required. Thanks to a tight integration with Purchase Orders in Microsoft Dynamics AX your costing and shipment tracking will be accurate and efficient.

Voyage tracking

With voyage tracking incorporated into Landed Cost, you can use Dynamics AX to define and track direct and tranship services provided by shipping companies. Voyages can be created from defined shipping companies services based on price and /or delivery time. Depending on the number of shipping services you company uses, you can chose to define the whole service route or just the ports that are relevant to your trading.

The system can store multiple container sizes and types, each with different charge rates held against them. Port service charges for each combination of container type and port can be stored against each shipping company, as can BAF charges. All of this allows the user to get a complete picture of total shipping charges associated with a voyage.

Various cost allocation methods

With Landed Cost distributors and manufacturers can calculate accurate inventory valuations by including additional charges beyond item purchase cost. The system supports a range of cost allocation methods.
