Customer Charging Import

This is the most complex and cumbersome import, from the data you provide we have to work out a master table of charges, apply similar charges to the customers and then provide some logic as to being able to associate those with a specific product.

Explanations of each type of charge are explained in the sections below :

1 Customer Charging Import
2 Customer Defaults
3 Goods Inwards
4 Storage
5 Goods Ouwards
6 Sundry Charges

Links to the specification pages are below:

Only supply information in this section if you are using the Vision Invoice system, this is required ahead of the normal imports to provide us with time to work out the charging structure before we load customers then products then stocks

Customer Defaults

We need this for all customers, it contains information on minimum charges

Goods Inwards

This is also known as RHD charge but we do not call it this due to the ambiguity of the D part of the term RHD, so we refer to this as goods inwards and it is the charge for goods coming into the warehouse and the subsequent charges for those receipts.

Storage

Alternatively known as the RENT charges, this is the charges made each time for the storage of the items within the warehouse.

We operate a CHARGE period of

Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Quarterly
Annually

It also allows FREE periods based on the charge period.

The charge period is seperate to the invoice period e.g. You may charge weekly but invoice monthly

Goods Ouwards

Charges for items leaving the warehouse, this is based on a number of different factors and represents the ability to charge for orders, order lines or if your basis of handling is pallets then it could be a case picking charge or single item picking charge.

Sundry Charges

Additional charges made for the customer for goods inwards or goods outwards and can be applied to the pre-advice (goods receipt) or the sales order (withdrawal)

e.g. wrapping.
