The Courier module has two screens over one record. C/N Booking is the front desk keying the consignment in; C/N Accounts is the accounts desk completing and posting it. It is the same consignment on both.
Booking a consignment

- Fill SHIPPER/SENDER and CONSIGNEE/RECEIVER.

Tracking the shipment
The consignment carries a status schedule — a date, a time and a done flag against each event, in order:
- Custom Clearance (Local Hub)
- Departure (In Transit)
- Arrived at Airline Hub
- Departed from Airline Hub
- Arrival At Destination (Process at Foreign Hub)
- Custom Clearance At Destination (Foreign Hub)
- Handed Over to Carrier
- Arrival at Port of Loading (KHI)
- Departure from Port of Loading (KHI)
- Arrival at Port of Destination
The accounts desk
C/N Accounts is the same record with the CHARGES and Invoice Info blocks completed. Finalising here posts the consignment to the ledger through the C/N income and expense codes set on Auto J.V Finance Codes Setup — the booking screen does not post.
Its list carries an extra filter: Invoices Having Amount or Invoices Having Zero Amount, for finding the consignments that still need pricing.
Statuses and printing
A consignment is Un-Final, Final or Void, and the list filters on Final, Un-Final, Posted, Un-Posted and Void. The print block renders C/N, Invoice, Pro-Forma Invoice, Sales Tax Invoice, Weight Sheet or Label Printing, in PKR or FCR, on Letter Head or Plain Paper, with a copy for the Shipper or the Courier.
