Hi,
Within the functionnality of auto cost for Transfer order lines and it seems to me the ledger posting could be improved
I setup:
- transfer order auto cost group
- cost type code: selected account in charge accrual account, charge account, variance
- Auto cost / Transfer order line
- landed cost parameters: use cost type charge accural account is ticked and also Post adjustments as variance
Process:
I created a transfer order and added the corresponding Auto cost
I created a voyage cost and recall my transfer order with the Auto cost
I shipped and received the items
I posted the Vendor invoice for the freight with a difference between the Estimation cost and the real cost
In the accounting posting, it woull be more accurate if the account setup in charge accrual and charge account were used. Today, the posting is as below:
In the voucher when the items is received, the voyage cost is not using the charge accrual account setup in the Cost type code
And again in the voucher for the freight vendor invoice, neither the charge account is used nor the variance account
Thank you

Good idea. The Transfer Orders also need to support charges codes where the Transporation cost can be accrued just like on other orders for outbound (sales order) and inbound (purchase order) freight costs.
