Third Party Freight can be entered at the time of receiving to factor the freight cost into the C3 Landed Cost of the products. This will only be reflected in the cost if your system is set to update the landed cost before the A/P invoice is received. You can check this setting in your Company Master > Pricing/Costing tab > Update Landed Cost in P/O Receipts w/o A/P Invoice (Y)es/(N)o. If this is set to "N" the C3 Landed Cost will not update to reflect the Third Party Freight until the A/P Invoice for the receiving is entered.
Third Party Freight is the only part of the receiving that can be changed after it is invoiced to Accounts Payable. Third Party Freight can only be entered if there is a quantity received. If no quantity is received, the system will warn you that the freight amount entered will be cleared upon saving.
