Overnite Launches New E-Mail Invoice Solution
RICHMOND, Va., March 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Overnite Transportation
Company, one of the nation's leading less-than-truckload carriers, announced
today it has introduced a new service providing its customers the option of
receiving their invoices via e-mail, offering them greater flexibility in
managing their shipping needs.
Provided in a convenient PDF file format, Overnite's e-mailed invoices are
identical to paper invoices its customers would normally receive in the mail,
complete with a copy of their invoice summary and any other applicable shipping
documents, including images of bills of lading or proof of deliveries.
"Our customers now can have their invoices sent right to their e-mail inbox as
a simple attachment," Overnite Director-Systems Development Tom Kubsh said.
"It's the EDI solution for small companies and independent business owners who
average 10 shipments a day or less."
The PDF files are sent with imbedded bookmarks to direct users to specific
pages within the document for easy reference to a shipment's freight bill
number, as well as additional shipping documentation, including original
freight bills, delivery receipts, a bill of lading or a reweigh certificate.
There also is a search function allowing users to quickly find detailed
information, such as a specific customer name. In addition, Overnite's e-mail
invoice files include several options for printing, allowing either the whole
document or specific pages to be printed as needed.
"Many of our customers communicate with Overnite regularly via e-mail and use
the Internet for making their shipment arrangements," Kubsh added. "It made
sense for us to provide them with another solution to help simplify their lives
and make doing business with Overnite as effortless as possible."
For more information about the company's new e-mail service for invoices,
contact your local Overnite account manager. The service requires users to have
a copy of Adobe Acrobat, which can be downloaded for free from the Internet or
from Overnite's Web site.
