I have a landed cost document that needs to be paid before product is received, these fees need to be allocated to the cost of the item. But landed cost documents can’t be paid without a PO receipt. Is there a work around that allows me to easily allocate these fees to the unit cost? Thanks!

I saw this shared a while ago and have been using it when we have to pay a landed cost document before the goods have arrived e.g. high value duty disbursements.

We raise and pay an unlinked prepayment bill against the LC vendor, then once the goods arrive and we can apply an LC, raise the bill then apply the prepayment

We have the same scenario. I take it from the lack of replies, that this is another feature lacking in the software, with no work around.
