Landed cost allocation
I am inputing landed cost, but i am not happy with current allocation.
This landed cost is not paid to supplier of this BILL. but inputing landed cost make the Bill's value increase. Please improve this version and make it effective

@Entop Enterprise:
When you create a separate Bill to record the shipping cost from a different Vendor, you need to click "Add landed cost" to add the shipping cost into the Item list of the Bill. If you only type shipping cost item into the Item list like a normal item, the Bill# will not appear like you mentioned.

I have followed exactly all the steps you have mentioned here. Unfortunately no Bill# appears in the drop down list when I select a vendor in the "Allocate landed cost" form. Please note that I've duly created bills for those vendors with a status showing "Paid".

You don't have to include the Landed cost in the same bill. For example, you pay freight charges to one Vendor A, and the actual goods are from Vendor B.
1. Create freight charges by choosing "Add landed cost" and save the bill.
2. Create the bill for Vendor B for the goods purchased.
3. Now, from the Vendor B's bill, click on "More" option and select "Allocate landed cost". This will list down the bills that has "Landed Cost" items and you will be able to add it to the asset of the actual goods.Refer this link for different ways to allocate Landed costs - https://www.zoho.com/in/books/help/bills/#landed-costs
