  • This setting applies to both airfreight export and airfreight import.

AIRFREIGHT → AWB AGENTS

Deposit voucher type for gateway billing to partner

The co-loading houses and partners are invoiced with airfreights and other charges.

The following voucher types are available:

  • IBV (Internal settlements)

  • R - Single invoice

  • SP - Collective invoice

The voucher type can be recorded in the menu AIRFREIGHT → AWB AGENTS → field Gateway billing.

  • Besides the voucher type you can also enter an alternative voucher recipient.

  • If this field is blank, the invoice is issued to the AWB agent address.

AIRFREIGHT → RATES → CUSTOMER OTHER CHARGES

Other charges for gateway billing

Since the actual costs for other charges such as fuel and security are now always directly issued to the co-loaders, you have the option to enter alternative amounts in the basic data.

Please open the menu AIRFREIGHT → RATES → CUSTOMER OTHER CHARGES. 
The customer other charges recorded in this menu are usually pre-assigned in HAWBs and IATA files in the CargoSoft standard application. 
Since the consol gateway branch also invoices the customer (branches and co-loader), customer other charges are used here, too.
In all other consol files, other charges are determined from BUYING RATES (OTHER CHARGES).

If a branch is activated as gateway profit center, the other charges are drawn from the program CUSTOMER OTHER CHARGES.

Two options are available for the gateway billing:

  • The field GW amount and

  • the field Calculate: GW
