Landed cost

The landed cost terminology will allow the users to deduce the amount of the product shipment, insurance, allocated service charges and many more. These would be especially beneficial if the shipment and the delivery charges on the product are much higher. These prices will be included in the product price and will provide the user to charge the customer upon the purchase of the product.

The landed costs are calculated as per the company and the terminologies of the company operation. The landed cost option can be activated in Odoo platform by enabling the landed cost option available in the settings menu.

In the settings menu under the valuation tab the user can activate the option landed cost on which he/she will be able to charge the customers based on these.
