Invoice Print Parameters

The Invoice Print Parameters program is used to define specific details about how your customer invoices will appear. You can also define various notes that will be printed on each invoice type. There is no limit to the number of invoice types you can define. You can create new entries in the table, or existing entries can be modified or deleted. Also see Related Tasks.

 

 

Invoice Print Parameters

Add new invoice print parameters prior to printing or emailing invoices. Existing invoice print parameters will populate the grid to be modified or deleted.

 

Add New Invoice Print Parameter

  1. Click Add.
  2. Enter an Invoice Print Parameter Description which uniquely describes the content selections for this invoice type entry.

Remember, you can enter as many invoice print parameters as needed so you can customize the selections to fit each of your invoice types.

  1. Select Set as Default for the invoice type that will be used when previewing, printing or emailing an invoice from Account Inquiry.
  2. Select which parameter fields to be applied to this invoice type.
  • Hover over a parameter field to view the field description.

 

See the below table of parameter field descriptions:

 

Parameter Field Parameter Field Description
Print $0 Line Items If this option is not selected, zero dollar items will not be included on the invoice. This allows the suppression of regularly scheduled pickup calls on the invoice. If this option is selected, items with a zero dollar amount will be included on the invoice.
Print Balance Forward This option will print the customers balance forward amount at the beginning of the invoice as well as all payments and adjustments made between the previous invoice date to the current invoice date.
Age to Invoice Date Only This option is mainly used for reprinting invoices. If this option is selected, only transactions up to the invoice date will be included in the aging. This is to ensure the reprinted invoice is accurate compared to the original invoice.
Use Alternate Layout This option indicates the invoice type uses an alternative invoice layout when printing.
Print Material Description

The Print Material Description checkbox indicates whether or not TRUX will replace the Material Description on an invoice with the Auxiliary 2 description.

 

Print Material Summary Printed summary by material will be included on the invoice following the invoice details when selected.
Print Disposal Info This option indicates whether or not TRUX will print the additional disposal ticket information on customer invoices. The additional information includes the Bill of Lading, Carrier, Purchase Order, Note 1 and Note 2 fields.
Print On-Board Weights

Typically used for internal purposes. On-Board weights will only be included on the invoice if this option is selection.

Print Site Totals This option will print a subtotal after each site on invoices where you have designated the account's Bill To Type as Consolidated.
Group Period Activities

This option is used so that recurring charges on accounts that have multiple service sites and multiple recurring charges will print on one line. If there is more than one service site with the same recurring charge activity, the invoice printing will use the description of the first service with that activity and add the charges for all the services to the description.

Print Tax by Site This option will print tax total lines for each customer-site on an invoice when selected.
