Subject: FREIGHT BILL AUDIT AND PAYMENT TRANSITION TO TRENDSET
All,
As many of you are aware, EA will be transitioning our freight bill audit and payment process to Trendset, a 3rd party freight bill payment company. We will be transitioning the business in phases and Elizabeth Arden would like for Jaguar invoices for imports, domestic inland and non Zug export (Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Puerto Rico) to transition on 8/1/11 via EDI. Elizabeth Arden requests that Jaguar work directly with Trendset to start EDI testing immediately and the direct contact information is listed below. Trendset has also sent EDI specifications to Jaguar.
Since Jaguar is one of EA's biggest carriers and therefore will have a largest impact on this transition, I wanted to advise of a few key elements that need to be taken into consideration to ensure the transition is seamless.
1. Paper Invoices: Will continue to be sent to EA until Jaguar can complete EDI testing with Trendset and receive final approval to start from EA.
2. Inland Domestic Invoices: Will need to receive one per shipment vs current consolidated invoices (or have the two IT teams work out). EA will need to have a record of each shipment and cost per each shipment to be visible in TS, no exceptions. This is required for EA financial reporting.
3. Main reference fields: Will need Jaguar to transmit the "load number" as the bill of lading number for domestic inbound shipments, and the "ct ref. number" as the bill of lading number for both imports and exports.
4. Invoice Timing: Need invoices sent asap to avoid gaps in accrual process. Please advise how this works for each type of shipment (imports, exports and domestic inland). When will the EDI transmission be sent, at shipment time, receipt time or when?
Please advise of any questions or concerns regarding the 8/1 go live EDI date.
