SEKO went live on July 5th with Late Billing KPIs. Late billing logic is strictly looking for the 1st Accounts Receivable billing invoice/sales invoice to be issued. Once that is issued the job will fall off the late billing dashboard. For files that are cost only and no receivable invoice will be issued, operators must put in a profit and loss reason code against the job in order for the job to fall off the dashboard. For BCN files, the dashboard is looking strictly at the ASM shipment type lead master file for the receivable invoice. If the BCN files are entered properly the sub jobs will not appear on the dashboard.

Controlling Agent - Is a CargoWise term that appears in an Organization Record and in a One-Off Quote, Booking, and Shipment. It is defined as the internal party that owns the commercial relationship with the controlling customer and will be used to track controlling station reporting.
To Fix: Enter proper controlling agent and customer on all files where controlling agent and customer are blank. For controlling customers listed as SEKO - update the file to show corrected controlling customer
