How to handle Estimated vs. Actual Landed Cost without generating variance adjustment transactions?

We apply Estimated Landed Cost at item receipt (fast-moving goods) and enter the actual AP Bill later. When the amounts differ, our ERP creates a 2-line adjustment transaction for the variance. 

We want to prevent these extra adjustment lines. Are there alternative workflows or best practices for this?

Hi ​@nomii ,

Can you try below-

 

Vendor confirms shipment + final invoice
        ↓
Enter AP Bill (actual amount) → Save (don't post yet)
        ↓
Warehouse receives goods → Receipt auto-links to AP Bill
        ↓
Release AP Bill → Release Receipt (same session)
        ↓
No variance document generated 

 

Hope above helps!!
