How to set up items to work out Wiise Landed Cost?

The wiise landed cost of your items is calculated based on weight, volume, duty, etc. Make sure your importing costs are calculated correctly by providing this information about your items.

1. From the Wiise role centre, search for and select Items. 
2. On the Items page, select an existing item or select New to create new item card. 
3. Fill in the Item card. 
4. In the Warehouse section, update the following fields: 
   • Duty code 
   • Duty due % 
   • Unit volume 
   • Net weight 

If you receive a purchase order without this information, you can edit the Item card. Here's how:

1. In the Item card, fill in the fields you want to include in the calculation.
2. Then run the Landed Cost batch job from either the Posted Purchase Receipt or Purchase Invoice windows. Select Actions > Wiise Landed Cost.
3. This will update received purchase orders with weight, volume or duty for that item.  

An item charge could be freight, insurance, or other additional charges related to the item.  

You'll need to set up item charges with the Apportion Method. This is so you can see the different landed costs associated with importing goods. And understand how the costs are distributed among the received items.  

You can use an item charge to: 

• Identify the Wiise Landed Cost of an item to make accurate decisions to improve your distribution network 
• Break down the unit cost or unit price of an item for analysis and reporting
• Include purchase allowances into the unit cost, and sales allowances into the unit price 

You can set up an unlimited number of item charges depending on your business requirements. 

Here's how to set up an item charge: 

1. From the Wiise role centre, search for and select Wiise Landed Cost Item Charges. 
2. In the Wiise Landed Cost Item Charges window, select New to create a new line. 
3. Fill in the fields. 
4. In the Apportion Method field, select the options you want to allocate the landed cost by: 
   • Amount 
   • Quantity 
   • Weight 
   • Volume 
   • Duty 
   • Equal
