Enter Additional Costs on Receipts

Overview

You use the Additional Costs tab on the Receipt Entry form to add costs such as handling charges, service charges, and duty. You can expense costs or prorate them to received items.

You can:

Add additional costs charged on the shipment by both primary vendors and secondary vendors, such as for handling charges, service charges, and duty.
Edit additional-cost amounts on previously posted receipts which are not yet fully invoiced.
Assign or edit the terms code and tax group for the additional cost vendor.
Check the number of details and the total amount of additional costs entered for the vendor.
In multicurrency ledgers, edit exchange rate information for vendors who do not use the functional currency.
Specify how to reallocate prorated costs of received items that you return.

If you are adding additional costs for non-inventory items, you must choose No Proration. If you choose to prorate by quantity, cost, or weight, the program will display an error message and prevent you from posting the receipt.
