What do you think? I'm curious.

So I gave a flatbed full load within Ontario. Picked up May 19 delivered May 19th. Received invoice June 3rd.
Invoice dated May 19th. So the 30 day term should start on invoice date or date received?

 

[Shakey]

are your terms 30 days from delivery or 30 days from receipt of invoice? Or I should say are their terms...?

My understanding it should be 30 day from receipt of invoice because cant invoice customer till I receive POD.

Normally we are required to email POD within 48hrs - we can invoice whenever we like and terms are 30 day from receipt of POD... reason why POD was not sent in right away?

I called them several time for the invoice & POD. Received the POD on June 1st.

On our confirmation

ALL POD MUST BE EMAILD WITHIN 24 HRS FROM THE DELIVERY DATE TO AVOID LATE PAYMENT

We pay all invoices 30days upon receipt of invoice. Any time we get something like your situation we always advise our terms and most carriers are good with it as they know they get paid like clockwork at 30 days. Was the invoice factored by any chance?

So then would email back highlighting this term - and pay from when you received POD

I have, and it's in the system dated on the 1st.

Frankly, I wouldn't argue about payment delay if I sended POD that late..
And shouldn't are they, eh...

Not yet. They did the same thing on the last order. Service was great.

Well, in this case, both parties have nothing to worry about..
I wish, that would be the biggest problem in trucking industry, eh..

 

[MikeJr]

I found it rare but did happen for out of town drivers that they simply only hand in paperwork every couple of weeks. You'd think with scanners, cameras etc paperwork would flow much faster but sometimes it just boils to the guy in the truck ins't in the office that much...

Hope everyone is keeping well,
Mike

Yes sir, that's the way we do it too. Clock starts ticking when we get the POD and invoice.

sorry but I was meaning when you set up your new carrier what was the payment terms agree upon?

30 days from the time we receive the invoice and POD

 

[AccountsReceivable@DRC]

Payment should be 30 days from receiving FULL paperwork - invoice and POD together.

 

[loaders]

Exactly. We pay in thirty days from the day we receive both the completed POD and the corresponding invoice.
