Landed cost model
Standard cost plus inbound freight, duty and handling, effective-dated, so margin is measured against what the unit actually cost.
The business question
What did a unit really cost once freight, duty and handling are in?
What it does
Builds an effective-dated landed cost from standard cost, inbound freight, duty and handling. Margin is then measured against what the unit cost when it shipped, not against a standard set once a year.
What’s inside
Composed from the platform’s own objects, so it is a configuration you can open, not a document.
