About This Automation

Landed cost and pricing calculations combine supplier invoices, freight, insurance, and customs fees into a true per-unit cost for imported goods. Manually collecting these figures and allocating them across SKUs is time-consuming and prone to error.

An automated version extracts costs from incoming documents, allocates them across SKUs, and calculates a proposed sell price for review. Once approved, pricing updates flow into inventory and accounting systems and the sales team is notified.

Key features
Extracts freight, insurance, and duty amounts automatically from incoming shipment documents.
Allocates shared shipment costs across SKUs using weight or volume ratios.
Calculates true landed cost per unit and proposes a sell price based on margin rules.
Routes new pricing for manager approval before it goes live.
Updates inventory and accounting records automatically once approved.
Notifies the sales team of price changes without manual follow-up.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Shipment Invoices Landtrigger

Supplier, freight, insurance, and broker invoices for a shipment arrive in the inbox.

2. Extract Costs From Invoices

The Cost Ingestion reads each invoice and pulls out freight, insurance, and duty amounts by shipment.

3. Calculate Landed Cost & Price

The Landed Cost Calculator allocates shared costs across SKUs by weight, computes landed cost per unit, and applies the margin rule to propose a new sell price.

4. Route For Manual Review

If a proposed price moves more than 5%, it is sent to the finance manager for a quick approval before going live.

5. Update Cost & Price

Approved landed cost and sell price are written to each SKU record.

6. Sync Price

The confirmed price updates automatically so invoicing stays accurate.

7. Notify Sales Team

A summary of which SKUs changed price and by how much posts to the sales channel.
