Invoice Admin

What is on this page, it contains information on each of the tabs within the Invoice Admin tab

Imported Data Invoicing

When opening the tab you will be on the Imported data invoicing tab the page is broken up into a number of sections.

The key question on the page is whether this customer is an EMAIL or PRINT customer for their invoice.

If you select Email then remember to setup the customer contacts in the WMS system to receive the invoices. see Vision Warehousing - Contacts

Invoice Terms

Payment Terms

There are two options that can be used

Add days to the invoice date - you then need to enter the number of days
End of the next month following invoice date

These will be used to calculate the due date for the invoice which may be on your invoice template along and it may also be required of your finance system output.

Include VAT

It is not always 100% clear whether sales tax or VAT is to be charged on specific invoices, and customers outside of your home country may be exempt from sales tax / VAT for some charges.

Please ensure this is TICKED by default and only have this unchecked if you are 100% sure you can raise invoices for your customer without sales tax

Stock Storage Invoice Period

Modification of a customer invoice Period will have unexpected results and is not recommended.

A potential solution would be to set up a new account for the Customer and migrate stock across to the new account.

If in any doubt please contact the Vision Support Team via the support portal.

Stock Storage Report Style

Most customers have at least 2 different outputs for their customers, generally these are

Detailled Invoice - this will be an invoice with every single line for each charging period shown on the invoice. We would recommend you consider the summary invoice which groups everything.
Summary Invoice - it is advisable that is you are sending the summarised template that you also tick the email csv option as this will generate an excel file for your customer which contains all the data.

Goods Out Invoices

This section is used in conjunction with the goods out charging tab, those options are displayed in the section below. https://visionsoftware.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VINVOICING/pages/2460975113/Invoice+Admin#Goods-Out-Charging

If you select “Invoice” for one of the goods out invoice types you need to use the goods out charging tab to setup the respective rates which will be charged.

The other fields above are explained further in the expansion box below

Goods Out fields ...... expand for further explanations.

Goods Out Invoice Options

Field Name	Explanation
include VAT	whether this item will have sales tax applied.
Min Invoice Charge	If the calculated amount of this section of the invoice is below the value shown then this will be the minimum charged value.
Accumulative	if you want to charge to accumulate for previous months were charging has been missed.
Ignore EDI Band	As part of the charging mechanism you can seperate charging for manually entered orders and those which are provided via EDI/VCIS, this allows you to give customers better rates when you are not having to provide resource to manually enter the orders
Charge Remainder only	if you wish to only charge for the picking of cases. (leave this field unticked if you want to charge for picking of everything e.g. pallets, Cases, and Singles). this will charge the remainder part for each transaction e.g. customer picks 8 bottles from a 6 bottle case, selecting this will charge for the 2 bottles only.
Round up	to round charges up.

Charging Basis - when charging is implemented, the system will use the singles per case and cases per pallet from the product settings.

Goods Out Charging

BEFORE you switch on any existing Customer, BE AWARE that any charges not already processed will be processed with the next invoice run ! This could go back several years.

You can avoid this by either

Removing the unwanted charges in the Amend Invoices screen prior to the next invoice run.
Run an invoice manually and void prior to when you plan to start using this feature.

If the number of historical charges is likely to be very high, we recommend contacting the Support Team before adding any new charges.
