Landed Cost > You have attempted to allocate landed costs to a transaction using an allocation method that results in no allocation for any lines in the transaction. The allocation method you chose is "X". To correct this problem...

This message is encounteredon three different scenarios.

"You have attempted toallocate landed costs to a transaction using an allocation method that resultsin no allocation for any lines in the transaction. The allocation method youchose is {Method of Allocation selected}. To correct this problem, go back tothe transaction and choose a different allocation method, or modify theitems/lines on the transaction so that there will be some cost allocated to thelines."

Scenario 1: Item Record is not marked totrack Landed Costs.

Go to Lists > Accounting > Items. Edit the ItemRecord > Go to Purchasing /Inventory Tab and mark the TrackLanded Cost Checkbox > HitSave.

 

Scenario 2: If there is no data to use forthe Allocation Method Selected.

If the Allocation Methodused is 'Weight', and error is still encountered, check the Item Record > Sales / Pricing Tab >Shipping section, verify if there is a value on the 'Item Weight' field.

 

Scenario 3: If user is attempting to allocateLanded Cost to an Item Receipt coming from Customer Returns.

Landed Costs are capitalizablecosts incurred to make the Inventory available and ready for sale. Costsincurred on Customer Returns are considered expenses and are rather notcapitalizable thus are not allowed. If users would insist capitalizing thiscost, they may still do it via Inventory Adjustment Worksheet (use the LandedCost Expense as Adjustment Account)
