Overview

The system allows to set up a box charge on a per category basis. The charge will affect costs and prices. This article explains how to set it up.

How does the box charge affect the landed cost?

We are going to purchase a product type Bouquet whose landed unit cost is 1.4 (including freight, handling, duties, inbound freight cost, GPM, etc.).

If we add a Box Charge for the category of this product of $4 per FBE, this will be reduced from the unit landed cost as follows:

FBE: 1 (our box type is FB)

Product Pack: 10 units per box

Box Charge per Unit:  $4.0/10 units= $0.4 per unit.

New unit landed cost: $1.4 - $0.4= $1.0

How does the box charge affect the product price?

The box charge will be added to the landed cost of products as an additional charge so it will increase the sales price.

Since the suggested sales price is calculated based on the landed cost and the company GPM, the box charge will apply anywhere on the system where a price is suggested: /wiki/spaces/KB/pages/3341012, Single Mode, POs, SOs, Fill From Open Market, Allocations, when adding products from VA or Future Sales to a Prebook, from the e-commerce, etc.
