Container Entry for Supplier Managed Stock

Hi guys,

We import a lot from the far east and therefore use container entry extensively. We do use it to calculate landed costs which is useful but we also get a lot of benefit from managing the shipments through this application. However, you can’t use it to mange imports for supplier managed stock. I presume this is because the cost of supplier managed stock is only added to inventory once the item is sold. It’s really annoying because as I say, there’s a lot of operational benefit to using container entry not limited to the calculating of landed costs.

Does anyone have a suggested way of managing shipments, perhaps containing multiple purchase orders, other than using container entry?

Any help much appreciated,
