Accounts payable Invoice types

 

ISIS has the advantage of being able to create accounts receivable and accounts payable invoices at the same time by posting a Bill of lading. To generate a payable invoice there is a specific table, payable table that has to be set up for this purpose.

There are six different types of Accounts Payable, and they are determined by the system under which they are generated and posted. When a manual invoice is created, meaning that the user has entered it directly in the accounts payable entry screen, the invoice type will be regular. The other five types belong to the group of invoices generated by postings of bills of lading in the traffic system, as follows:

 

Traffic                          A general type of invoice for charges that need to be paid, different than drayage, brokerage or advance charges.

            Drayage                       Generated to the trucking company that takes care of carrying containers

Brokerage                    The system generates this type of invoice, whenever there is a commission to be paid to a forwarder with a valid FMC number

Forwarder. Advance.   Whenever this amount is entered in the Bill of Lading with a valid forwarder (different than .Not Available).

            Line Payable                 Used in most cases by agencies that have to pay all the charges to the line

           

These invoices will show the respective type in the entry screen. It cannot be changed,
