Temperature will be included in the takeoff calculations as, for instance, required by FAR 25.105. However, it is not uncommon to find no temperature provision for landing as, for instance, seen in FAR 25.125.

If your AFM appears not to include temperature for takeoff then, as MFS suggests, it may be a case of its not being as obvious as you might like.

There is nothing to preclude the inclusion of temperature as a variable in the landing data and, sensibly, one is going to make an adjustment for non-standard conditions even if only to use density height in lieu of pressure height as the argument.
