Financial Status of a Shipment
The financial status is a user-defined category you can apply to your shipments.
There are two primary locations where you can view the financial status:
View the financial status in the Financial Status column.
In the Running Ledger section (under Shipment Financials), view the financial status of the shipment.
Note
The Running Ledger section contains fees from the service agreement by default.
An unexpected charge added to a shipment creates a discrepancy between the planned rate and the invoice rate. In that situation, the shipment's financial status is Invoice Discrepancy.
Note
An invoice discrepancy must be resolved before the shipment can have a Billed to Client status.
In the Shipment Financials section, view the discrepancy between the planned rate and the invoice rate.
Select the original carrier invoice associated with the shipment.
On the Carrier Invoice page, select one of the following options:
