CS Landed Costs is a smart application for Microsoft 365 Business Central. The app enables you to split up general overhead costs on purchases into various different cost types, such as freight, insurance, commission, customs clearance and duties. The result is a clear and detailed view on how cost prices for your trade items are built up.

With CS Landed Costs you can identify every single cost type to either purchase or sales profit margins. No matter which Inventory Cost Method applies. FIFO, LIFO, Average, Specific and Standard (fixed) cost methods are supported.

The app uses standard Microsoft 365 Business Central functionalities. On posting purchase invoices the necessary Value Entries are created for each Item ledger entry. The value entries are posted to the General Ledger according to the settings of standard General Product Posting Groups in the General Posting Setup.

Actual costs can be registered directly on general ledger accounts, giving a global insight in results per cost type, but also as Item Charges. In that case, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central will add Value Entries to the applied item ledger entries, giving a detailed insight in results per cost type, per item ledger entry.

CS Landed Costs will add value entries to correct accrual entries if necessary.

Value entries are created to post any change in the cost price of an item to the General Ledger. CS Landed Cost also creates Landed Cost Entries, to make analysis possible per item, per order and per vendor.

Therefor, CS Landed Costs ensures the registration of each detailed ledger entry both in the inventory and the general ledger just by doing your regular work.
