Delivery notes

Generate professional delivery notes for your drivers. Share them instantly via a WhatsApp link so clients can confirm receipt of goods.

Flexible freight billing

Create line items for per-trip rates, per-tonne charges, and fuel surcharges. Keep your pricing clear so clients understand exactly what they are paying.

Waiting time and demurrage

Add specific line items for unexpected delays. Bill clients accurately for demurrage and waiting time when trucks are held up at ports.

Customs disbursements

Record the fees you pay on behalf of clients at customs as expenses. Easily add these costs to their final invoice for reimbursement.

Monthly contract billing

Set up recurring invoices for your long-term transport contracts. Automate your monthly billing cycle and ensure steady cash flow from regular clients.

Multi-currency invoicing

Bill international freight clients in their local currency. The system handles the conversions and keeps your financial ledgers accurate across borders.

Variable Freight Costs

Bill accurately for fuel, weight, and waiting time

Transport billing is rarely a flat fee. A single trip might involve a base per-tonne rate, a fluctuating fuel surcharge, and unexpected waiting time at the loading dock. Paper & Pen lets you build invoices that reflect the reality of the journey. You can create saved line items for demurrage, per-trip flat rates, and specific route charges. When a driver is delayed at customs or a warehouse, you can easily add those extra hours to the final bill. Clear, itemised invoices prevent disputes and ensure you recover the true cost of every trip.

  • Charge clients using per-trip or per-tonne rates
  • Add line items for fluctuating fuel surcharges
  • Bill for demurrage and unexpected waiting time
  • Save standard route prices for faster invoicing

Customs and Disbursements

Recover out-of-pocket expenses immediately

Logistics companies often act as a bank for their clients. You pay customs duties, port fees, and handling charges out of your own pocket to keep freight moving. If you forget to invoice these disbursements, your profit margin on the trip disappears. Our system allows you to log these payments as expenses the moment they happen. When it is time to bill the client, you can pull those exact expenses onto the final invoice. This ensures every rial paid at the border is recovered from the client.

  • Log customs duties as immediate business expenses
  • Add out-of-pocket port fees to client invoices
  • Track unpaid disbursements in your financial ledgers
  • Protect your margins on cross-border transport

Proof and Payment

Connect delivery notes to monthly billing

Contract clients do not want an invoice for every single truckload. They want a consolidated monthly statement, but they also demand proof of delivery for every trip listed. Paper & Pen helps you manage this workflow. You can generate delivery notes for every dispatch and share them via WhatsApp. At the end of the month, you can use recurring invoices or compile those completed trips into one clear monthly bill. Your clients get the summary they need, backed by the delivery records you generated throughout the month.

  • Generate delivery notes for every single dispatch
  • Share delivery records instantly via WhatsApp link
  • Set up recurring invoices for contract clients
  • Consolidate multiple trips into one monthly bill

Questions

Everything you need to know

Can I bill clients in different currencies for international transport?
Yes. Paper & Pen supports multi-currency invoicing, which is essential for cross-border logistics. If you handle international transport, you can issue quotations, delivery notes, and invoices in your client's preferred currency. The system tracks the financial data and ensures your profit and loss reports, as well as your balance sheet, remain perfectly accurate in your home currency.
How do I handle customs duties paid on behalf of a client?
You can record the customs duties, port fees, or inspection charges as expenses within the system. When you create the final invoice for the transport job, you simply add these disbursements as line items. This ensures you have a clear record of the money leaving your business and guarantees you recover those exact costs from your client without eating into your transport margins.
Can I attach a scanned proof of delivery to my invoices?
Paper & Pen does not currently support uploading external files or scanned documents to attach to your invoices. However, you can generate official delivery notes directly within the system for every shipment. You can then share these delivery notes with your clients via a WhatsApp link alongside their final invoice to confirm the completed transport.
Does the software support monthly consolidated billing for contracts?
Yes. For clients who require a single bill at the end of the month, you can manually compile all their trips into one comprehensive invoice. Alternatively, if you charge a fixed monthly fee for a dedicated transport contract, you can set up a recurring invoice. The system will automatically generate and send the invoice on the schedule you choose, saving you administrative time.
