Greetings,

We currently have infant formula on a GPO agreement at $0. However, our distributor charges a handling fee of $2.95 a case.

We loaded PO25 with $0 but buyer has to constantly change PO price to $2.95 to handle the fee.

Is there a way to keep PO25 @ $0 and attach the handling fee?

Thanks

Can you add it as an AOC on the PO25.6? We would process it as an invoice AOC

Handling fees, freight and other AOC is entered on the AP side here.  When we started with Lawson we entered AOC on the PO but many times the $ amount was different or the vendor ultimately didn't charge any fee. We had a lot of lines that wouldn't close that we had to fix so we now just let AP handle it. Anything over $50 they contact the buyer.  So in your situation if that was the only item on the PO, the line would close upon receipt and AP would just enter an expense invoice for $2.95 referencing the PO with the distribution going to the freight account.
