What is Usage Fee
Transaction cost (Usage fee) is automatically generated by means of Delivery Note when filled packaging is booked as dispatched.
Transaction cost is based on the usage cost that includes purchasing, administration and distribution; all costs linked to the handling of the packaging.
Each time packaging material is being used for transporting a Delivery Note must be registered by the user in LES. Transaction cost is invoiced monthly and by default the dispatcher of filled packaging is paying transactions costs, unless the (direct) receiver is a Volvo Group company or if a Payment agreement has been set up.
