Review an added freight charge against the issued PO

Do not treat goods receipt as approval for an extra charge.

Prepare the purchasing decision

Synthetic issued P-F buys six units at HKD 10 with delivery included. A new supplier request adds HKD 40 freight. The local rule requires a recorded charge amendment before the extra cost can pass document matching. Receiving six units confirms the goods quantity, not the new charge.

Complete the recorded outcome

  1. Read the issued delivery-cost term.
  2. Record the proposed additional charge separately.
  3. Obtain correction or agreed amendment before clearing that amount.

An unknown freight arrangement stays unresolved; neither zero nor an added amount may be invented.

Does receipt of all six units clear the full HKD 100?

Show the worked answer

No. Goods account for 60; the added 40 still lacks the required charge decision.

No refund, tax, shipping-law or payment right is inferred from these fictional terms.
