Import information from loaded Delivery or Blend Tickets into an Invoice.
The quantity for the Product can be changed when invoicing Blend or Delivery Tickets. However, if the quantity is changed, the analysis and Field history could be incorrect. The recommended procedure would be to change the quantity on the Blend or Delivery Ticket to keep the Field history and analysis correct.
Single Invoice
After invoicing from Delivery and/or Blend Tickets, these tickets are marked as Processed and are no longer available at the Import Tickets screen for future billing. Voiding the Invoice makes the ticket(s) available for re-billing.
When a Return Delivery Ticket is imported into an Invoice, the Return Reason selected on the Delivery Ticket is included on the Invoice's Source Tickets tab. If more than one Return Delivery Ticket is imported, the Return Reason from the last Delivery Ticket with a Return Reason populated is used. The Return Reason can also be seen on the Delivery Product Analysis report at Accounting Reports / Inventory / Inventory Status by checking the Returns Only option.

Multiple Invoices
Multiple Tickets, found at A/R / Invoice, is used to efficiently invoice a group of selected Delivery Tickets or Blend Tickets. Individual invoices are created for each ticket selected.
This option was created as way of automatically invoicing a batch of selected delivery and blend tickets. Tickets for multiple customers can be selected since it creates one invoice per ticket. The pricing follows the ticket price, the booked price, the price level entered on the customer file, or list price. If there are any pricing differences between a ticket and a booking, or if there are issues with the invoice checking, such as credit checking, permit checking, or grain bank pools, messages will appear awaiting a user response of how to continue. If a message appears, the user has the option to skip the invoicing for that ticket. Skipping that ticket allows the process to continue for the remaining tickets.
During the busy season, it can sometimes be difficult to get the task of invoicing all those tickets completed.
At the Import Multiple Tickets window, tickets may optionally be filtered by Customer, Field ID, Crop, Location, and Farm ID.
Select tickets. Multiple tickets may be chosen by holding the Ctrl key while selecting the tickets.
If the Preview Invoice(s) option is selected, each Invoice is displayed and may be adjusted as needed. At the bottom of the window, the following options are available:
- Skip – The Invoice for the current ticket is not saved. Selecting this advances to the next selected ticket for review.
- Back – For a split Invoice, this navigates to the previous customer in the split.
- Next – For a split Invoice, this navigates to the next customer in the split.
- Save – This will save the Invoice.
If the Preview Invoice(s) option is not selected, the Invoices are created automatically.
Note: If any required information is missing or if there are credit warnings for the selected customers, messages display.
