Customer Invoice Batch Generation

Users can select any list of invoices to generate the invoice .PDF or .PDF with .CSV files and mail these invoices to customers or print them in batches. The invoice Billing Contact Account’s Transportation Profile defines the batch processing mode to use when batch invoicing a Contact.

  • One Email, Combined Invoice Attachment: One attachment containing all invoices and one email is sent to each billing contact.

  • One Email, Individual Invoice Attachments: One attachment per invoice and one email is sent to each billing contact.

  • Multiple Emails, Individual Invoice Attachments: One attachment and email is sent for each invoice. Any files attached to a load that contain the phrase “Proof of Delivery” can also be included (see below).

If no selection is made, the default setting is One Email, Combined Invoice Attachment.

  • When the “PDF with CSV” option is selected in the Billing Email Attachment Format field of a customer, a single CSV file is generated that includes all the invoices selected for the Billing Contact regardless of the Batch Invoicing Email Process setting.

  • The .CSV file is attached to the same email that includes the .PDF.

  • A .CSV file is not generated when the user clicks on the Generate & Print button.

To include PODs in your invoice communications, set the following field:

  • Include as Attachment: Include each load attachment that contains the term “Proof of Delivery” as a separate attachment.

  • Include in Invoice Attachment: Include each load IMAGE attachment that contains the term “Proof of Delivery” within the invoice DF document.
