# Deletes the landed cost item with the given identifier.

`DELETE /inventory/landed-cost-items/{id}`

Group: Inventory › Landed Cost Items · Operation ID: `deleteLandedCostItem`

Deletes a landed cost item. Charges its selector used to catch stop being eligible, so they no longer appear in GET inventory/landed-costs/vendor-bill-lines.

Landed costs are not touched. Drafts keep the vendor bill lines already chosen, and committed ones keep their allocation outright, because this row is consulted when charges are offered, not when they are posted. Nothing here reverses a capitalization.

Setting active to false through PATCH is the reversible alternative, and it reads the same way to the selector.

## Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Api-Version` | header | `"v1"` | yes | The API version this request targets, named by its public identifier. Required on every request; omitting it, or naming a version this company does not have, is answered with 400. This document describes version `v1`. |
| `Idempotency-Key` | header | string | no | An opaque caller-chosen string (1-255 characters) that makes this request safe to retry. Repeating the same key with an identical request body replays the original response instead of re-executing - but only once that original request succeeded; a failed attempt re-executes on retry. Repeating the key with a different body is answered with 422. A key still in flight is answered with 409 - as is a key whose original request was interrupted before it finished, for a few minutes afterwards, until that attempt is presumed dead. A completed response stays replayable for 24 hours. The key is scoped to the caller, not to the action: reusing it for a different action is answered with 409 or 422 rather than treated independently. On read actions this header is ignored. On write actions that cannot offer the guarantee it is answered with `400 IDEMPOTENCY_NOT_SUPPORTED` rather than silently ignored. |
| `id` | path | string | yes | The unique identifier for the landed cost item to delete. |

## Response

`200` Success

Under `data` (deleteLandedCostItemOutput):

## Response headers

- `Idempotency-Replayed` — Present and `true` only when this response replays a previously stored one for the same Idempotency-Key, rather than reflecting a live execution. Absent on a live response - never sent as `false`.

| --- | --- |
| `NOT_FOUND` | 400 |
