Landed cost: adding freight, duty and customs to stock cost

Quick answer: With Landed costs on (Warehouse features, Enterprise), you can spread freight, duty, customs and insurance across a purchase order. The cost of each product received goes up by its share, so your margins reflect what the stock really cost.

When the bill arrives late

If some of the stock has already been sold, that share becomes one cost-of-goods adjustment dated the day you apply it. Past sales are never rewritten.

Note: applied lines can’t be edited; correct them with a negative line. Landed costs change stock value inside Open Pantry only — no journal is sent to your accounting software.
