Landed Cost Transaction updates Stock Item with $0 adjustment

HI @laura01 

What is your allocation method on the Landed Cost code? This may need to be changed. 

Also, here is a very good article on Landed Cost processing:

https://www.dynamictechservices.com/acumatica-landed-cost-and-complex-calculations/

Allocation method is by Cost. Can you explain in what circumstances, how will I know whether I need to change this?  Insurance will be higher on more costly items and that is why I chose cost in this case.

@laura01 I do not see that the Landed Cost document has been released in the screens above.  To see the adjustment you need to release.

Thank you @kbeatty21:   I think you have led me to the answer: my testing item is set up as STANDARD cost and I likely need a layered costing method, in order to update the cost.  (Doh!)  Will try this  tomorrow.

Thank you @dales50: the landed cost adjustment batches are definitely released.

I have the PO preferences set to release automatically:

The adjustments batch I highlighted on the Valuation report  in the very first screen shot, # 000006, is the actual released Landed Cost adjustments batch. In the adjustments screen, it looks like this:

The cost is correct in the IN adjustments batch and yet, not updating the stock item’s value. (The other two items are non-stock so I wouldn’t expect any cost to update for them.)

Because…. it’s a standard cost item.  😐

@Kandy Beatty I can not view this help article that you posted and I am having the same issue. Please see screen shoots below. Any help would be appreciated.

I changed “2022” to 2023 in the URL and it takes me to a slightly newer help article about the same topic.  HTH.
