This article shows DVU users how to generate two types of invoices: accessorial/transportation and renewal storage. Click here to learn how to email or export an invoice file.
Note To transfer data from an order (receiving, shipping, or work) to the Invoicing module, set the status of the order to Scheduled Post.
Generating an invoice
Accessorial/Transportation
To generate an invoice, the Accounting team should:
-
Go to Home > Account Integration > Invoicing.
-
Click the plus
icon.
-
Select Accessorial/Transportation on the drop-down menu. A new window displays.
The window shows all available orders by account and the type of work (i.e. WMS Receiving, WMS Shipping, WMS Work Order, and TMS Shipments). Select an item to generate an invoice.
Creating an invoice
Once the Accounting team selects a billing account, a new window displays.
-
Fill in the fields as required.
-
Configure the post and due dates (optional).
-
Check a box to generate a type of invoice (i.e. a shipment, receipt, or work order).
-
Click the Calculate Invoice button.
Note The Transportation box only works if the TMS environment is enabled.
After the user clicks the button, DVU generates a table with one folder for each invoice.
Note R = receipt. S = shipment. W = work order. T = transportation.
-
Click the icon to expand a folder.
-
Review invoice details.
-
If correct, click the Create Invoice button to generate the invoice.
-
If not correct, go back to the record, verify the inputs, and generate the invoice again.
Optional features
Use the checkboxes at the top of the page to select or de-select invoice orders. Users can also select a line and then click the edit button to view the order.
Note To sync an invoice correctly, the Account Description on DVU needs to match what is in the customer profile. Additionally, the mailing and shipping address on DVU must match exactly what is on QuickBooks, if used (case sensitive).
Renewal storage
To calculate storage fees:
-
Click the plus
icon.
-
Select Renewal Storage on the drop-down menu. A new window displays.
-
Enter the account.
-
Fill in other fields as required.
-
Click the Calculate Invoice button.
DVU generates a table with the renewal storage charges.
-
Review invoice details.
-
If correct, click the Create Invoice button to generate the invoice.
-
If not correct, go back to the record, verify the inputs, and generate the invoice again.
