# View posted transport order costs

Once the transport order is posted, view the posted cost lines in two ways:

- From the **Posted Transport Order**.
- From the **Purchase Invoice Lines**.

## Steps - View posted transport orders

1. Choose the ![Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature](https://cdn.document360.io/da662430-6a41-47b1-8c7e-7e4ac37a9756/Images/Documentation/search_small(3).png) icon (Alt+Q), enter **Posted Transport Order**, and click the relevant link.
2. Select a transport order and click **Transport Costs** in the ribbon to open the **Transport Costs** page.

The posted transport order cost entries appear with the following fields:

- **Purch. Invoice No.**: filled when the line is part of a purchase invoice.
- **Posted Invoice No.**: filled when the field was used in the purchase invoice.
- **Posted Amount**: shows the amount booked in the purchase invoice. This amount can differ from the amount in the **Amount** field.

When a cost line is partially booked, it cannot be used again in a purchase invoice.

## Steps - View from purchase invoice lines

1. Choose the ![Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature](https://cdn.document360.io/da662430-6a41-47b1-8c7e-7e4ac37a9756/Images/Documentation/search_small(3).png) icon (Alt+Q), enter **Purchase Invoice**, and click the relevant link.
2. Click **New** to create a new purchase invoice with a vendor linked to a shipping agent.
3. From the **Lines** menu, use **Get Transport Costs** to view the transport order cost lines for the specified shipping agent.
4. A selected line creates a purchase invoice line with **Type**: **G/L Account** and the G/L account as set in the **Transport Cost Component Setup**.

This functionality works the same as the standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central **Get Receipt Lines** function.
