Storage fee rules

General

The storage fee is a form of service billing that is used when a customer has rented storage space from a logistics service provider. The storage fee is paid to the service provider and depends on the storage space and storage time as well as other definable parameters (such as weight, product categories, etc.) The storage fee can be billed for various services.

The storage fee is calculated at specified times for a defined period for a specific client. The storage fee is always fixed on the following day.

Several storage fee rules can be created for one or more storage fee invoice templates.

General information about the rule is defined here. This includes the mandatory fields Number, Name, Valid from, Valid to and Client. A storage money type can also be selected which can influence further filter options as described below.
