A "Landed Cost Category" can be set up (though they are not mandatory) and assigned to a "Landed Cost Type" for identification and reporting purposes.
To create or update "Landed Cost Categories" (shown below), search for the "Landed Cost Categories" screen, or select Landed Cost Categories from the Setup menu on the Landed Cost Setup screen. Then enter the Code and Description that represent the Category you wish to use.
| Code | A unique code of up to 10 characters that identifies the Category. This field cannot be blank. |
| Description | A description of the Category, up to 30 characters. |
With "Landed Cost Categories" in place you are then able to assign them to "Landed Cost Types" using the Category Code field. See Landed Cost Types.
Note: you cannot delete a Landed Cost Category while it is assigned to a Landed Cost Type. Remove the Category from the Landed Cost Type first.
