Accounting - Drop Ship Orders - FedEx/UPS Third Party Billing

edited Mar 18, 2011 9:03AM in Accounting / ERP 1 comment

Hi Everyone,

We're having a problem that I imagine is pretty common for retailers who drop ship.  The problem is related to how we account for shipping costs.

Most of our suppliers do not bill us directly for shipping costs.  Rather, they have our FedEx/UPS/USPS account numbers - and they simply bill our carrier accounts for each order shipped.

So, for a given Sales Order, we pay our supplier for the items, and we are billed by FedEx/UPS/USPS for the shipping charges.

To see our margins, we really need to track on a per-order basis how much FedEx/UPS/USPS charged us for shipping.  (We would like to do this in NetSuite.)

Howdy, Stranger!
