3. Select the desired starting date for this option. The system will only calculate the duties for items received on or after this date.
4. You can apply Select in which cases you want the duties to the invoices in all the cases (Prebooks, Standing Orders, Local or Open Market) or only be shown as a separate line on the invoice (Always, Only for Prebooks and Standing Orders or Never).
5. You can add new duties just clicking on the Add new Duty link, then choose a category, choose a port and enter a value %.
How do the Duties work in the system?
The duties affect the landed cost since it is an additional charge that is added to the product cost. The landed cost is calculated using the following formula:
| Note |
|---|
Product Cost + Freight & Handling + Duties. All values are on a per unit level. |
When you choose "only for Prebooks and Standing Orders", the price remains the same but the dueties will automatically appear in the invoice as an additional charge. This will ensure that your customers get billed at the same price for standing orders and prebooks but they will be charged for the duties on a separate line.
For Open Market or Local Market, the system will suggest a price according to the landed cost (duties included) and the GPM. Duties will not appear as an additional charge in the invoice.
When you choose "Always", the duties will be included as an additional charges in a separate line to all cases (Prebooks, Standing Orders, Local or Open Market).
