Understanding the Billing Request Page
The Chassis Management System is the central asset management system that tracks the movements of chassis in and out of terminals and depot locations. These movements are the basis of trips starting and stopping, which generates billable activity. Running within the system is a rule set that determines who the billable party is for the charges associated with the chassis trip.
Billing request submissions are made by parties interested in taking the bill for particular chassis trip. Based on the system, this request may or may not be approved.
It is recommended to submit all valid billing requests before invoices are issued.
