Whoa, when I first logged in I didn't get the entire thread. What puzzles me about these answers is that shipping costs aren't always paid to the vendor from whom the goods are purchased.  So the recommendation that you go in and edit the original Bill doesn't make sense on two fronts, one it's not the same vendor and two, if the dates on the bills are different, and in fact there are two different bills even if from the same vendor, why would you edit one to add the second? I'm totally confused.

In QBDT we had a way to add an estimate of the labour or other costs to the COGs in order to record additional costs, but I don't see a way to do that in QBO. Maybe I'm missing something?
