What are some of the different workflows for pre-creating bills in landed costs?
Here are some of the main workflows involving the pre-creation of supplier bills in a landed cost calculation:
Scenario One:
Enter all bills and post them all at the same time as completing the landed cost
- Enter bill A
- Enter bill B
- Receive PO
- If any, enter other bills related
- Complete and finalise the landed cost, the system will:
- Create all the bills including A, B
- Pro rata calculation of products' landed costs
Scenario Two:
Pre-create bill A, and then enter other bills when they come, complete the landed cost and create other bills
- Enter bill A, pre-create it, sync it to Xero
- Receive PO
- Enter bill B
- Complete and finalise landed cost, the system will:
- Create bill B
- Pro rata calculation of products' landed costs
Scenario three:
Pre-create bill A, and need to pre-create bill B after the PO is receipted
- Enter bill A, pre-create it, sync it to Xero
- Receive PO
- Enter bill B
- Have to pre-create B and sync it to Xero BEFORE finalising the landed costs:
- Un-receive PO
- Pre-create bill B and sync to Xero
- Re-receive PO
- If any, enter any other bills related
- Complete and finalise landed cost, the system will:
- If any, create other bills (that have not been pre-created)
- Pro rata calculation of products' landed costs
