D365 F&O Landed Cost Module

     I would like to open this topic to give a summary information on the need of the landed cost module. This is the module most desired, I believe by the SCM (supply chain management) consultants to manage the inbound operations especially when you try to manage GIT (goods in transit) operations. Now you can manage all the process regarding to the purchasing operations under one module.

    For to activate the landed cost module, you need to use feature management and select the landed cost and activate.

    In this module, you can estimate costs, use accruals on goods in transit and track voyages.

    Not to forget that this module differs from TMS (Transpostaion Management Module) You can use both modules at the same time. You can find the list of differences in this link below but I prefer to use the landed cost module on import operations:

For details on how to setup and use landed cost module, please use the link below for Microsoft documentation:

      I would like to give some summary information on the TMS module.

Also you can manage and reconcile charges.

Default Descriptions

  In D365 F&O there are ways to manage the descriptions. You may find the list below: Manual:  You may fill the description in the journals per line before you post the transactions. you may fill both for account and offset account. If you define a description before, you may select one from the list. Automatic:  Some transactions are auto created to the journals or on transactions default from the hard coded codes, like asset lease management and some functionalities in TMS management. Default Descriptions:  You can setup default descriptions by transaction type (sales order invoice, Po invoice, revaluation etc). On the transaction types you can use static (constant) text and/or variables. Specific Cases:  There are specific cases like revaluation. If you define the text during to run in revaluation process, system uses that information instead of to use the definition on the default description. Or if there is no setup on default descriptions, cancel opera...
