If you need these items already during PO entry, please consider making them as service items. If these items varies in price, just set the price to 0 and enter the correct price when entering.

Joe,
I have been doing that as well, but there is still the problem that you cannot enter it in the quotation you receive from the supplier. Process should be:
- request quotation to supplier for some goods
- supplier provides quotation listing goods as requested and add freight or shipping and handling fees
- use data provided in quotation (including S&H) to produce PO
- use PO to produce delivery note and supplier invoice
- pay supplier invoice

I think we should be able to add S&H to the quote we receive from them or at least into the PO

If you do not want to distribute the S&H in the line items when entering them you can do that when entering the Supplier Invoice under GL Items.

OK, I'm confused. I've read several posts about S&H, but I still can't figure it out.

In Accountings Receivable, I can enter a value for S&H, which is fine. But I can't see how to do this in Accounts Payable. If I order parts online from a web store like newegg or tigerdirect, there are different S&H with each order. How do I enter this? Is it supposed to be another line item, or do I go somewhere and enter it in a separate location?

Thanks again for a fantastic program.
