    Hi LilyUltimate​ , the amount you've queried ($1833) is the amount in the Freight field. This is not subject to the same processing rules as inventoried items, in fact I'd suggest that using the freight field on purchase orders is something the program is either not designed to handle or is handling incorrectly. 

    If this freight cost is being charged by your supplier, I would suggest leaving it off the PO, or using an "I purchase" freight item and add a line to the PO.

    Ideally (per general accounting principles) you should be apportioning the freight cost across all your inventory items in this shipment, so that their cost in stock reflects the cost of bringing them into the warehouse. There are ways to achieve that in the transaction.
