Agency Business 

Use

The business fields, pooled payment, del credere, credit card management and brokerage are all covered by the Business Content for Agency Business.

To fulfill all the requirements Agency Business uses independent logistics documents that can contain information about both the vendor and the customer:

·        Settlement request or settlement request list/posting list or settlement request list/customer settlement (incoming invoices entered by the vendor)

·        Vendor billing document or expenses settlement (ad hoc credits and debits related to the vendor or the customer)

¡        The del credere settlement in pooled payment requires the vendor billing document, so that it is possible to separate the del credere charges from commodity trading.

¡        In import and export transactions, business-related expenses occur for different partners.

·        Remuneration list and extended remuneration list

Collective settlement for commissions for creditor and debitor. Commissions can be grouped in the remuneration list and then posted together on certain due dates.
