Record a purchase order
Lines, freight, duty and terms — a landed unit cost per SKU, and a bill on its date.
- Planning → Stock & costs → Purchase orders → New.
- Add each line: SKU, quantity, unit price.
- Add freight, duty and other costs for the whole order. They are spread across the lines by value.
- Set the date received and “Paid after (days)” — your payment terms.
- If duty or freight is paid separately — duty to customs on arrival, freight to a forwarder — give the days after arrival each is paid. Left empty, they are paid with the goods.
The landed unit cost becomes the SKU’s cost from the day received, and the order is paid in Cash ahead on its terms, duty and freight on their own days where you set them. The supplier on the order is what Profit by uses for its supplier cut, and Cash ahead lists what each supplier has been paid and is still due.
