COMPANY → BRANCHES

Preallocate the branch address in HAWBs for the gateway billing

An invoice recipient address must be entered in the HAWB so that the system is able to create an invoice for the branch or a partner per HAWB in the consol file (gateway). 

Just like described in ADMIN → ADDRESS QUALIFIER the relevant address field is used with qualifier GWINV.

In most cases, the invoice must be created for the co-loading branch; or an external partner in some cases.

To avoid having to manually fill the branch address in every HAWB file, you can enter a default address in basic data COMPANY → BRANCHES → Default addresses tab.

If this is a partner, the address in the order must be overwritten.

The preallocation of a fixed address for every order is made on the tab Default addresses per mode, sector and AWB type:

Description: The invoice from the consol is ussued to the address entered in the HBL in the address field with qualifier GWINV. This address must contain information about the type of billing.
