Problem Description
SHIPPING AND RECEIVING
We first discuss how to receive the freight parts via special ordering on the purchase order
Two scenarios are dealth with on the reveiving side.
The freight bill is available when being receivedThe freight bill is not avaialble when being received Solution
SHIPPING:
Making the order on a per supplier basis. Since Purolator is not a regular supplier we would not normally make a PO. You have to in this case as the freight must show on the invoiceSpecial orders are listed and individually added to each PO. This is not the way we normally add a line to a PO.RECEIVING:
Using a tracking number in place of our purchase order (PO) number.Using $0 to account for not having information on the final costs of the air freightChanging the cost on the ground freightHow to track down the invoice numberUpdating the standard costs? We choose to have the costs stay at $0 for this scenario.How to look at landed costs on the invoice (Adding a column or using the %discount button)Adding a new line on the invoice to track the freight unknown informationWhat about changing the prices? Where does this fit into your processes.Why the Air Freight must stay on the invoice even though it is unknown. Ans: we need it to be able to track our way back here from the purchase order.
