Settlements of outgoing invoices

Learn how to list, search, import and manage the settlements of outgoing invoices in Logzi.

Feature overview

In this module you can review the Settlements of outgoing invoices: how much of the total of the issued invoices has been settled. Each row of the list shows one settlement: its own identifier, the settled invoice, the partner and the settled amount. You can also import settlements from carrier or payment provider files.

  • Clear list: settlements are shown by document number, date, partner and amount in a paginated table.
  • Quick actions: you can open the selected settlement for viewing or delete it.
  • Import: you can record settlements in bulk from a provider file (for example GLS, MPL, DPD, Barion) or with the Universal import.
  • Export: the list can be downloaded as an XLSX file.
  • Customisable view: you can set the columns, the number of rows per page and the sorting.

The status of a settlement is Posted. A deleted settlement stays visible in the list as a struck-through row. The settlements of all document types together are described in the guide Settlements list.

Step by step

1. Viewing the list and the actions available for settlements

Click Main menu / Cash register / Settlements / Outgoing invoices to see the settlements of outgoing invoices. On the Actions tab above the table you find the buttons for the selected settlement:

  • Open: shows the details of the selected settlement in a read-only window (details below).
  • Delete: deletes the selected settlement. The system asks you to confirm and deletes one selected item at a time. Use it if you recorded a settlement by mistake.
  • Import: records settlements from a file. In the menu you can choose between providers and the Universal option, see the details below.
  • Download: XLSX lista downloads the list as a spreadsheet, taking the currently filled search conditions into account.

Importing settlements from a file

In the Import menu you can choose from the following options. For a provider option you upload the file exported by that provider, and its format differs by provider:

  • CSV file: GLS, MPL, SimplePay, Packeta.
  • XLSX file: FoxPost, FámaFutár, Csomagpiac, Barion.
  • XLS file: DPD, MyPOS.
  • Universal: an XLSX file in the own structure of Logzi, for all cases where there is no separate provider option.

The selected option opens the import window. In the window:

  • with the Universal option, use the XLSX file schema link to download the structure of the file to be imported;
  • choose the file in the File upload field;
  • the Save button starts the upload and processing, and the Close button closes the window.

After processing, two tables appear: Items that failed to import and Successfully imported items, with the columns Parcel number, Cégnév and Result, so you can see at once which row was not imported and why.

In the Universal file the data is in the second worksheet (the first worksheet is the help sheet). The first row is the header, and the system identifies the columns by the header names, so do not change them. The columns are described in the Field descriptions section below.

Searching among settlements

On the Search tab you can narrow the list with the following conditions:

  • Partner company name: by the name of the partner.
  • Document number: by the number of the document.
  • Document date: by giving a period (from – to).
  • Document type: by the document type chosen from the drop-down list. The value Please choose means there is no type filtering.

Run the search with the Search button; the given conditions narrow the results together. The Expand button is not active on this list.

Customising the view

On the View and layout tab you can adjust how the list looks to suit your work:

  • Oszlopok (Columns): choose which columns are shown and drag them to change their order. In the Name and Active table you can also search among the columns; the Default, Select all and Deselect all buttons give quick choices, and the Save button stores the setting.
  • Sorok (Rows): in the Visible rows field you can choose 10, 25, 50 or 100 rows per page.
  • Sorting: by giving the Selected column and the Sort order (Ascending or Descending). By default the most recently recorded settlements are at the top.

After saving, the page reloads with the new settings. The setting is kept for the duration of your session, and each of the four lists (List, Incoming invoices, Outgoing invoices, Retail sales) stores its own setting.

The Open window

The Open button opens the Settlement window with the caption “Information about the posted settlement”. The window is read-only, and its only button is Close. It consists of three blocks:

  • the basic data: Identifier, Value, Posting date, Status (Posted) and Colleague;
  • Invoice information: appears only if an invoice belongs to the settlement: the type, identifier, value and issue date of the invoice, and the data of the partner and the contact person;
  • Cash desk/Bank document information: appears only if a cash or bank item belongs to the settlement: the identifier, the ledger accounts, the direction, the comment and the transaction identifier.

In the two linked blocks the Identifier is a link; click it to open the related document.

Tip


For the Universal import, download the template with the XLSX file schema link and paste your data into the second worksheet. This way the headers and the structure will be correct.

The settlements of all document types are described in the guide Settlements list, the list of the issued invoices in the guide Invoice list, and the details of one invoice in the guide Invoice sheet.

Field descriptions

The default columns of the list and their meaning:

Field / ColumnRequiredDescription

identify_invoiceThe document number of the invoice. If the previous two identifiers are not given, the system looks for the invoice with this.

Frequently asked questions

Most likely no row is selected. In that case the system shows the warning „Kérlek válassz egy tételt a listából!” (Please select an item from the list!). Select a row and click again. Delete handles exactly one selected item at a time.

A struck-through row is a deleted settlement. It stays visible in the list and cannot be deleted again.

The window is for reading only, and its only button is Close. You can open the related document by clicking the Identifier link. If you recorded a settlement by mistake, you can remove it with the Delete button; it then stays visible as a struck-through row.

The Result column of the Items that failed to import table in the import window shows the reason. The messages appear in Hungarian; with the Universal import these can occur: „A kompenzáció összege nem került megadásra!” (the amount is missing), „Nincs számla a partner rendelésszámához!” (there is no invoice for the given order number), „A számlaszám nincs a rendszerben!” (the invoice number is not in the system), „A csomagcímke nem létezik!” (unknown parcel number), „A csomagcímkéhez nincs számla!” (there is no invoice for the parcel), „A számla végösszege már kompenzálásra került!” (the invoice total has already been settled), „A bizonylat típusa nem megfelelő!” (the document is not of an outgoing invoice type). Correct the faulty rows and import only those again.

The menu item Main menu / Cash register / Settlements / List shows the settlements of all document types together, described in the guide Settlements list. The list of the issued invoices is described in the guide Invoice list.

The menu item appears under Main menu / Cash register if the Settlement module is assigned to your user. If you do not see it, ask your administrator.
