View External Customer Invoice Load Information

Use this activity to get a general overview of all load identities related to external customer invoices. When a load has been selected, it is possible to right-click and launch a window that displays the invoices included in the load. The window displays all attributes associated with the header of an external customer invoice. From this level, another window can be launched that displays the customer invoice line details. Finally, from the line level, it is possible to launch either a window displaying invoice posting information or a window displaying invoice tax information.
