- In this screen you can change a shipment.
- A shipment partly consists of general information about the shipment including information about the transporter and the processor and also a part with the content of the shipment (details tab). The content of the shipment is grouped by waste stream in a detail line. A detail line contains barrels that all have the same waste-stream. Because a waste stream is linked to a processor, only waste streams can be selected within a detail line that are linked to the current processor. In one detail line, only barrels that have the same waste stream as the current waste stream, can be selected.
- The costs of transport can be recorded over the entire shipment. The costs for the processor are determined per waste stream because the processing price can differ per waste stream.
- Once a shipment has been sent (the check mark 'Sent' is checked), the costs of the transport can no longer be adjusted. If the final costs of the transport diverge, then the actual costs can be entered in the 'Corrected transport costs' field. The corrected costs will then be charged during invoicing.
- When a new detail line is created, you will first have to choose a waste stream. The list of possible waste streams contains all waste streams from current processing of which there are still barrels to be sent with the waste stream number. If the list of possible waste stream numbers is empty, then there are no barrels with a waste stream number from the current processor that could be sent.
- After you have selected a waste-stream number you can select the barrels to be sent via the link button.
- If you have chosen one or more barrels, the weight of the barrels will be added and placed in the 'Estimated weight' field. You can also adjust the estimated weight if necessary. Furthermore, the processing price per kg is recorded for the waste stream. You can also adjust this field if necessary.
- The total processing costs for the current waste stream are calculated based on the weight and the price per kg. This is an indicative amount because the processor will generally also determine the weight and the final weight and will invoice you for the processing costs.
- When the shipment has been sent, enter the shipping date in the general part of the shipment and check the 'Sent' field. At that time, the shipment can no longer be expanded with new detailed lines and only the invoice data and the corrected weight and cost fields can be changed.
- When the definitive costs are known (when you have received the invoice from the processor), enter these final costs in the corresponding fields.
- The entered cost fields (either the estimated initial costs or the corrected [final] costs) are used to invoice the various consumers. If you invoice the consumers before the final costs are entered, the consumers will be invoiced based on the estimated costs. When the definitive costs are subsequently entered, a correction to the costs already invoiced may be charged to the consumer in the next billing round.
- When a shipment has been fully processed (when all final costs have been entered), check the 'Processed' field. The shipment cannot be adjusted at that time (unless you uncheck the 'Processed' field).
