LESSON OUTLINE

Concept

  • Truck Invoicing mirrors Rail Invoicing but includes only items that arrived by truck.
  • Truck invoices do not include rail-specific identifiers (Railcar Number, Pull Number).
  • Days In Inventory covers an item’s full time on site, including any time before a facility transfer.
  • An item is counted once in each section, even where it sat under more than one customer during the period.

Run Truck Invoicing

  1. Open Reports.
  2. Select Truck Invoicing.
  3. In the parameter form:
    • Set Start date and End date.
    • Select the Customer.
    • Select the Time Zone in which timestamps are displayed.
      • This parameter is set to Central Standard Time (CT) by default.
    • Set Facility and/or Product Type filters.
  4. Run the report to generate the output.

Review the truck invoice sections

  1. Review Opening / Receiving / Shipping / Closing for specific snapshots & activity.
  2. Review Transfers In / Transfers Out for aggregate ownership transfer totals.
  3. Review Storage Summary and Handling Summary for aggregate snapshot & activity totals.

Export the output

The report opens directly as a PDF. There is no Power BI preview step in front of it.

  1. Select Print in the PDF viewer for physical paperwork.
  2. Select Download to keep a copy of the file.

Safe edits

  • If an expected item is missing, confirm its receiving transport mode is correctly recorded as Truck.

Verification

  • Storage Summary row count aligns with shipped item totals for the period.
