Depot Charges
Introduction/Purpose
Depot Charges represent the costs incurred during product handling at depots or terminals in the oil and white products trade. These can include loading, pumping, WAC (Weighted Average Cost) adjustments, and other terminal services.
In the Trade Module, the Depot Charges function allows users to:
- Define different depot-related cost categories.
- Standardize charges applicable during stock movement (loading/off-loading).
- Track expenses for accurate reconciliation and cost allocation.
- Ensure transparency in terminal-level costs for procurement and sales analysis.
