No company can work effectively without having complete control over its finances. It is of critical
importance that all invoices are raised in an accurate and timely fashion, in order to maintain a positive
cash flow.
The ForwardOffice Sales Invoicing module provides powerful and flexible invoicing facilities, capable of
covering every eventuality. Designed to cater for the myriad of different operational requirements
peculiar to the freight and logistics industry, this module allows Sales Transactions to be raised with
the maximum automation and the minimum user effort possible.
While transactions can be raised manually in a very straightforward manner, when linked to the Tariffs,
Quotations and Auto-Charging module, they can also be automatically generated using either house or
customer-specific tariffs and discount tables.
Flexible invoice construction offers added value and provides our customers with a choice over the method
of invoice presentation such as individual Job, periodic with analysis, or even electronically via data
exchange.
The Sales Invoicing module provides the freight operator with all of the tools it needs to control its
entire billing procedures in a highly efficient manner, thus contributing to positive cash flow. Further
integration with additional modules can further boost productivity and deliver a vastly reduced
administrative overhead.
