Features

  •  Tariff Management:  This feature provides a flexible, rule-based framework for defining, calculating, and applying tariffs using dynamic filters and rates based on quantity or value, ensuring accurate and automated tariff application across transactions.

    • Dynamic Tariff Setup Filters: Define a set of dynamic tariff filters—such as country, region, product type, supplier category, item classification, or any other relevant criteria—that determine how tariffs should be applied. The system supports up to eight configurable filters, allowing the business to create highly granular and flexible tariff structures.
    • Tariff Rate Setup per Filter: Configure tariff rates for each unique combination of the defined filters. Using the eight available filters, you can create targeted filter options and assign a specific tariff rate to each. This ensures that the system automatically applies the correct rate based on the transaction and item attributes, supporting accurate and flexible tariff calculations.
    • Tariff Rate Setup Based on Value or Quantity: You can configure tariff rates to be calculated either as a percentage of the item quantity or as a percentage of the total inventory value for the selected document. This allows you to apply tariffs flexibly depending on the nature of the items being processed—whether the charge should be driven by how many units are involved or by the overall value of the inventory.
  •  Unit Cost by Location Enhancement:  This feature improves inventory cost accuracy by allowing purchase charges to be assigned to Transfer Shipment Lines. This ensures that additional costs incurred during transfers are correctly included in the unit cost at the destination location, providing more accurate valuation, better cost tracking across locations, and improved financial reporting.
