Delivery process
-
a. Once the order has been packed and is ready to ship, the ERP system will send invoice information to Gothia via the InsertInvoice request, or via a text file. This will create the invoice at Gothia.
b. There are several ways of distributing the invoice:
1). Gothia can produce and deliver the invoice via mail or email.
2). Gothia can produce it and you can print the invoice. The pdf could be got via GetInvoicePrint or via the Gothia web portal Ledger Online.
3). You can produce and print the invoice and send it with the package. If you choose this method it is important to know that there are certain texts that you need on the invoice. Gothia will supply you with the correct texts. -

PlaceReservation

The total amount of the purchase is sent to Gothia in this request. You will receive "Accept" or "Reject" of the purchase. An accept creates a reservation of the amount at Gothia. The purchase decision is made by Gothia based on a numerous different parameters such as open payments, under approved age, open invoices at debt collection etc. In some cases we will carry out a credit check at the credit rating company. If the customer is rejected he/she will be prompted with a generic message. You will receive this text from Gothia at startup. If you pack and ship goods from different orders (PlaceReservations) you should send Null value into parameter for order number.
