Importing goods

Follow an import from the overseas order to stock in your warehouse at its full landed cost.

Steps

  1. Go to Procurement → Imports → New - supplier, origin, expected arrival.
  2. Raise the purchase order on the import; receive the goods into the import (goods in transit) warehouse.
  3. Post the landed costs (freight, duty, clearing…) as supplier invoices on the import - or provisions if the bill has not come yet.
  4. Click Cost the import - the cost is spread over the goods by value or quantity.
  5. Click Release to move the goods to a selling warehouse at the new cost.

Good to know

  • Goods in the import warehouse can't be sold until released.
  • Landed costs arriving after costing go to import cost variances.
