Transport note
Transportation notes track goods that are shipped and/or delivered but do not include products that are part of the core business. For example, shipping a computer that needs to be repaired or shipping marketing materials to a conference or trade show.
This function should be protected by a dedicated activity code (TRSNE Transportation notes) because it can be used by countries other than Portugal.
For Portuguese legislation, a separate counter must be used for transportation notes as well a new line for counter assignment. The digital signature is part of the record.
The main differences between this function and deliveries are the following:
- No link with an existing document
- No accounting journal
- No invoices
- No credit control and credit updates
- No accounting interface
- No returns for transportation notes are anticipated
- No stock management: The products can be managed in stock but no stock movement is generated for transportation notes.
- No control on stock availability is made even if there is no stock for a product managed in stock.
- No picking from items in the list panel; transportation notes must be created directly with no link to orders, shortages, etc.
- Dedicated sequence number
- The business partner can be a customer or a supplier.

Global document
|
A global document refers to a shipment where the final delivery details (customer sites and quantities) are not known at departure time. For instance: A company sells baked goods and delivers them to several customers' sites. The truck leaves with 1,000 units of baked goods, but it is not know how many will be delivered to each customer site. When all the deliveries are complete, the detail/normal shipping note is created and linked to the global document. If the current record corresponds to the example below, you must select the Global document check box to link the record to the final transport and deactivate those fields that are linked to the global transport. Otherwise, do not select the Global document check box, to link the record to the global document. |
|
If the current record is linked to a global document, you need to enter the global document type (origin) and the global document number to associate these two documents and to export this association properly in SAF-T.

This field displays the date for Global document. |
Manual document
|
If the web service is down, the transportation note must be communicated using a paper document including the paper document number and the internal system number. This communication must be done directly in the AT portal. This field must contain a slash character (/) separating the sequential number specific to the series (on the left) and the sequential number itself (on the right). This is needed for all transportation notes for manual documents. |
Communication
|
This field displays the AT code for the Transportation note returned by the tax authority. This field populates automatically when you communicate using the web service. If you communicated the transport using a manual document, you need to enter the code from the tax authority manually.
