Landed Cost Tracking
Gain Full Visibility and Control Over Your Import Costs
Landed Cost Tracking is essential for any business that imports goods or materials, helping you understand the true cost of every shipment.
Between fluctuating exchange rates, freight charges, insurance, customs duties, and handling fees, costs can quickly add up—and without the right system in place, they can easily get lost.
That’s where this powerful solution comes in.
At Intuitive IT Solutions, we help businesses implement and optimise Syspro’s Landed Cost Tracking module — a robust solution designed to give you complete visibility into all cost elements associated with imported goods. As a premium Syspro solutions partner, we ensure your ERP system captures every detail of your import process, enabling you to make accurate, informed financial decisions.
What Is Landed Cost Tracking — and Why It Matters
Landed Cost Tracking is the process of calculating the total cost of acquiring a product upon arrival at your facility — not just the supplier’s price. This includes every direct and indirect cost incurred from the point of purchase to final delivery.
For growing manufacturers, distributors, and importers, accurate landed cost data is essential for:
- Determining true product profitability.
- Improving pricing accuracy and competitiveness.
- Controlling procurement costs and reducing financial surprises.
- Strengthening supply chain visibility for better forecasting.
By leveraging Syspro’s Landed Cost Tracking module, you can confidently monitor and manage all cost variables — ensuring that the prices you charge, and the margins you calculate, are based on complete and accurate data.
Understanding the True Cost of Every Shipment
Landed Cost Tracking is essential for any business that imports goods or materials, helping you uncover the full picture behind your shipment expenses.
That’s where an effective tracking system makes all the difference — ensuring accuracy, transparency, and profitability across your supply chain, while empowering you to:
- Track shipment progress and estimated arrival times with real-time updates.
- Monitor and record all associated charges, including freight, insurance, customs duties, port handling, and broker fees.
- Pre-cost shipments for streamlined goods receipting and financial planning.
- Allocate costs accurately using flexible apportionment methods — by quantity, volume, weight, or value.
- Compare estimated vs. actual costs to identify discrepancies and improve future forecasting.
- Simplify invoice matching through the Goods Received Note (GRN) system, ensuring accurate cost distribution and reconciliation.
- Support multiple tariff codes automatically, minimising manual input and reducing compliance risk.
These features ensure that every shipment you receive reflects its true landed cost, giving your team the clarity needed for smarter procurement and pricing decisions.
