This is also known as the Exise Duty Bulk Payment

It allows you to select a rotation and to pay the duty for the entire rotation in a single transaction.

It is predominantly used when there are duty increases and the customer would like to benefit from the lower duty price.

You should try to run this bulk payment outside of normal operations, you have to ensure you are not about to pay the excise when you are in the middle of a pick for the same goods and the system will be unable to confirm the pick and despatch the stock as the status has been altered.

Entry Form

This screen is used to pay the Excise Duty for a whole rotation.

You need to enter at least the customer code / site code before you will be able to search.

Field Explanation

The DS Rqd and the DS fields refer to Duty Stamps and it will show whether Duty Stamps are required for this rotation and also whether it already has duty stamps on the rotation.

If stamps are required and not already on the stock you will need to action this before performing the bulk pay process.

How to Use

When selecting the Rotations that you wish to Pay, you will need to

select the line and then tick the Select checkbox.
Select the charging options if required.
Click on Bulk Pay Excise Duty.

Using for WOWGR Payments

If you have a customer without a WOWGR then the stock is held as frozen reason “WOWGR Required”, prior to the expiry of the 72 hour period you can select these frozen stocks using the filter to allow you to pay the duty.

Available Options

Pro-Rata Rent Option - If this is selected then the Customer will be charged the weekly rent for the Stock a second time. This is an alternative way of making the Customer pay for the bulk payment option. Without this option, you would process an Order and Re-Land the Stock (many Warehouses charge for this). What we can offer is the charge of double rent for the week.

You can also specify the "Charge Goods Out" which would raise the goods out charges for these movements along with any other charges you selected.

How it works

By pressing the Bulk Pay Excise Duty button the system will automatically Create the Duty Payment and then re-land the Stocks in exactly the same place with the same Rotation Numbers, except that they will be Duty Paid.

The rotation number is only an indication of the rotation when the stock was receipted of the excise duty status.

Frozen Stocks

If you have selected any stock rotations that are frozen you would receive a message, to confirm if you would like the system to auto-unfreeze the stock and proceed with the payment.

Completion

You would receive a message once the Bulk Excise Duty Payment has been processed, it will tell you to check the Failed Payments, this does not always mean that the payment has failed.

If the payment has failed, this will show the Failed Payment Tab, however the Rotations number will show on the Create payments tab for you to redo the payment.

Charging

To remove issues with the double rent charging which was the previous methodology for this process a new feature has been added providing you with the ability to charge either by the rotation which you are converting to duty paid or an option to charge a single charge for this service.
