Prices, costs and invoices of a transport order

With the financial module, a transport order carries its own money: what you charge the customer, what it costs you and the invoices that follow. This article covers the order side. For pricing rules and invoicing in general, see Pricing and Invoices.

Choose the administration

Pick the Administration in the order form before the first save. It decides which company invoices the order, the payment terms of a quote and the transport order terms printed on the order PDF. It cannot be changed after the order is saved.

Add cost elements

1. In the order form, go to Cost elements.
2. Click + Add cost element.
3. Choose the category in Select pricing category.
4. Choose the company the amount relates to and enter the amount.
5. Optionally add a Description.
6. Click Save on the order.

Consignments have their own Cost elements section in the consignment form.

Build a spot quote

1. In the order form, switch on Spot Quote.
2. Optionally choose a price configuration in Select pricing... and click Generate to calculate the quote lines from it.
3. Check or add quote lines with their Price, Quantity and VAT rate, and the Costs. The form shows the Subtotal, Total and Net profit.
4. Click Save on the order.

See the financial result
