Batch Invoicing is the central invoicing queue in Alvys where loads move through five statuses from Incomplete to Invoiced; use it to track, manage, and release multiple loads for billing in one action. Batch Invoicing is the main invoicing workflow in Alvys. It shows all loads across five invoice statuses and lets you move multiple loads to Released in one action. ## Overview Batch Invoicing (also called the invoicing queue or billing queue) is the central place where your team tracks each load through the invoice lifecycle. Loads move through five statuses: from **Incomplete** (missing requirements) through **Invoiced** (sent). You can act on multiple loads at once from the Accounting > Invoicing page. ## Where to Find It Navigate to Accounting in the left menu, then select Invoicing. The page opens to the **Incomplete** tab by default. Use the tab bar at the top to switch between statuses.

Check the Reason Incomplete column to see exactly what is outstanding before moving the load forward. **Released:** All required documents are present and the load is ready to invoice. From **Released** you can create an invoice (moves the load to **Queued**) or create and send in one step (moves the load directly to **Invoiced**). **Queued:** An invoice has been created but not yet sent to the customer. Select multiple loads in this status and use Send Invoice to dispatch them. **Invoiced:** The invoice has been sent to the customer. From this status you can resend the invoice or send a payment reminder. **Payment Discrepancies:** A payment has been applied but an outstanding balance or credit remains. Review and resolve the discrepancy before the load is fully settled. ## How to Use It The most common bulk action is moving multiple loads from **Incomplete** to **Released** at once. 1. Open Accounting > Invoicing and select the Incomplete tab. 2. Check the boxes next to the loads you want to move. 3. Select Move to Released. A confirmation modal appears before the move is finalized. 4. After loads reach **Released**, select them and use Create Invoice or Create & Send to advance them toward payment.

A load cannot be moved to **Released** if any documents required by the customer's invoicing settings are missing. ## FAQs **Q: Why does a load show as Incomplete even though it was delivered?** **A:** The load is missing one or more required documents or fields. Check the Reason Incomplete column on the Incomplete tab to see exactly what is outstanding. **Q: What is the difference between Create Invoice and Create & Send?** **A:** Create Invoice moves the load to **Queued**, where the invoice is staged but not yet sent. Create & Send creates the invoice and delivers it to the customer in one step, moving the load directly to **Invoiced**. **Q: Can I move loads from statuses other than Incomplete to Released?** **A:** No. Only loads in **Incomplete** status can be moved to **Released** in bulk. Loads already in **Queued**, **Invoiced**, or **Payment Discrepancies** require individual action. **Q: Who can access Batch Invoicing?** **A:** Users with both the **"Billing"** and **"Invoice"** permissions. Drivers cannot access this page. ## Go Deeper * [Invoicing Settings](/help/accounting-settlements/invoicing-settings)
