In this series we’ve looked at the full lifecycle of ground transportation services such as airport transfers, and highlighted how applications within the RideSuite platform solve many long standing industry challenges.
In this post, we dive into RideHQ – the hub connecting all the applications within the RideSuite platform. It’s where you configure and manage your account, view bookings, check rides by travel date and, our focus for today, where you prepare and generate invoices for your customers.
Let’s consider a company, we’ll call it ABC Cars, performs 50 rides per day for an agency at an average of 50 EUR per ride, and invoices monthly. That invoice will feature 1,500 rides and sum to 75,000 EUR. If ABC Cars payment terms are 30 days, it will extend credit totalling 150,000 EUR during the days leading up to invoice settlement. These are big numbers, and mistakes would be costly.
It is therefore essential that accurate invoices are sent promptly to avoid payment delays, and that remittances are reconciled to keep a record of which services have been paid and which remain outstanding. Billing features within RideHQ help companies generate accurate invoices based on pre-agreed rates, less any adjustments for errors or complaints.
Alternatively, use RideSuite webhooks triggered by status changes in order records to update your bookkeeping software or a stand-alone billing system.
