Landed Cost - How it works in Mobile WMS
Available in Mobile WMS for Dynamics AX/365FO version 3.14 and newer.
Landed cost provides accurate and timely cost estimates for overhead landed costs. At the same time, it provides increased financial and logistical visibility into the extended supply chain. It also helps reduce the administration of costing and costing errors.
Through Mobile WMS you can receive goods in transit or directly post product receipts from voyages with purchase orders.

A voyage includes one or more purchase orders. When you receive goods from more than one purchase order, your packing slips must be specified. From Mobile WMS we have simplified the posting process, so instead of asking for a packing slip for each purchase order, we only ask for one. During posting we ensure a unique packing slip, where we use the registered packing slip from the device and add a postfix '_#', where # is an incremental integer.
Parameter Setup
In Mobile WMS/Parameters/Documents/Receive Order Handler you find a parameter to suggest batch number. Landed Cost works in a way where you have to setup the batch controlled items to have automatic batch numbering. This is not necessary the way you want to receive your goods, due to registering and labeling items with batch numbers that comes from the vendor.
When you set the parameter to "Yes", Mobile WMS will receive the items as per usual in Landed Cost, but we have added an afterburner to make a transfer journal in where your just received items will be moved from the autogenerated batch number to the one you have registered during your physical receipt.
