Each dream is a seed, the seed of a tree. A tree full of life and what your life can be. Your dreams are the windows through which you can see a hint of your future and what you can be. My goal is to work for a company that appreciates the fact that the branches and departments are only as strong as the people holding them together. Teamwork and goal setting makes a company productive. I also seek a company willing to hear ideas and new processes when necessary to help
promoteprogress. To work in a setting that values my creativity, performance ability, and
problem-solving skills.
To use my skills to provide a positive impact on my co-workers,department and managers. I also seek a company where my skills can help me grow and become an invaluable asset.

I do not want to work for any company that has recently has mass layoffs,experiencing lack of work or looking to fill a void temporarily.I want a job with full benefits,starting at 13.00 per hour and vacation ot PTp time bulit in as a employment benefit.My compensation per hour will start at 12.00 per hour or more.

RJW Transport laid me off due to lack of work supposedly. They had a massive layoff of 50 people.

I have aletter stating it is lack of work and not a job performance issue.

Computer Skills:

 Familiar with Windows operating systems including NT, 98, 2000 and XP.

 Well versed in the use of Microsoft Office. (Word, Excel, Outlook, Publisher, Power point and Access)

Have used AS400 and inputted accounts payable invoices utilizing BAAN and MAS90

Experienced with ACT, Access, Microsoft Q & A and Gold Mine for customer contact data bases, as well as, Lotus Notes. ADP software is what I currently use in my currrent position.

Current Accounts Payable Responsibilities For Quebecor World Logistics:

1. Enter all LTL invoices from Fed Ex, Conway, New Penn, R & L Carriers, Oak Harbor, Pitt Ohio, SAIA and other carriers. Invoices are received via Fed Ex every Tuesday and Thursday. I also send new invoices to Bolingbrook office to get Load Numbers via Fed ex.

I organize the LTL invoices according to date – earliest to latest dates. Then I code the single LTL invoices and give them to the scanners to be scanned into Scandex. Older single LTL invoices I approve myself after being scanned. I also have to make sure that there is enough money per load rate agreement to pay the invoices. LTL invoices are also booked in the system by load rate agreement numbers but can be multiple invoices per rate agreement.

1. Contact vendors for missing paperwork such as missing a bill of lading/POD, Form 8125 from the US Postal service, Load rate agreements or missing the actual invoice. Load rate agreements are like a purchase order for freight companies. They list the company the load was under, date load was booked by the dispatcher, number of skids, pounds per skid, where the load was picked up and final destination of drop off. The load rate agreement list the bill of lading/POD number along with truck number used for delivery. If any information on vendor invoice such as name, amount of freight agreed upon by the freight carrier and dispatcher is different from agreement to invoice or booked in the system under the wrong vendor, the invoice has to go back to dispatch to be corrected.

1. Enter batches when correcting invoices that have been entered into our LMS system. Go into our Lawson system and utilizing batch numbers, voucher numbers and vendor information correct invoice numbers, dollar amounts, wrong dates, wrong vendor codes or if factoring with another company type in A or B to invoice numbers. Factoring is when a company accepts freight payments for multiple carriers. Lawson will kick out an invoice if used repeatedly so we put an A, B, C etc to get invoices paid when factoring.

1. Call for W-9 to set up new vendors and any other necessary paperwork such as insurance coverage carried by our freight carriers. Also we ensure that when companies move or change addresses for remittance we get them in writing before changing them in the system. If factoring they have to provide the necessary paperwork from their factoring company as well.

1. When LTL invoices require additional money to be added print out screens from LMS and give to appropriate personnel to add additional money needed.

1. Help out other Accounts Payable personnel approve invoices that have been scanned into Scandex by ensuring that all paperwork required has been scanned and that the vendor number and code are the same as in LMS.

1. Our department specializes in payment of freight invoices that require certain documentation be attached in order to process invoices for payment. Such as the vendor invoice, load rate agreement, signed bill of lading, QWL Accessorial Request Form and Form 8125 by the US Postal Service when required. Accessorial Requests range from truck ordered not used, detention charges, layover and damage to pallets or merchandise.

Accounts Payable Duties For McCain,Fork N The Road Fleet Management & Quebecor World Logistics:

Accounts Payable was done utilizing the AS/400, BAAN,MAS90, Lawson as well as Papersoft software.

Coding payables with general ledger codes, inputting vendor invoices, expense reports and direct pays with correct vendor numbers and general ledger codes,1099 preparation, verification of remittance addresses as well as physical address and different divisions if several vendor numbers for the same vendor, check runs and maintaining a vendor contact log with Outlook, Act, Access or other databases. Getting approval signatures when required as well as copy of bill of lading that had been signed when receiving shipments, copies of credits or return authorization documents along with any paperwork if check had been previously voided.

Job Duties Of Accounts Payable

Check Runs:

Check runs were done every day – Monday A Run which included utilities payments, expense reports and special expenditures, E run Tuesday which included all vendors and plant inputted invoices, Wednesday & Thursday customer service inputted invoices, Friday Canadian invoices and all week discount vendor checks were printed.

All accounts payable employees help match backup to check copies for all check runs – first matching audit checks and high dollar amounts next.

When vendor invoices were opened by mail you would verify purchase order information by either CMMS (maintenance inventory for plant related expenses such as forklifts and conveyor belts) and regular purchase orders. You would write down the vendor number, account number for that vendor, general ledger codes and any other pertinent information. Other information to verify would be quantity, pricing, vendor name if different from vendor who sent the invoice and receiving numbers were written down as well. If vendor name who sent invoice different from vendor name in system gave a 1099 form to senior accounts payable clerks to set up as a new vendor. Then you would enter your invoices and file them in alphabetical carts after initialing each one you entered. Filing them by invoice number as well as by alphabetical order.

The second duties were check runs from start to finish. The steps were:

1. Going into the AS/400 screen where the check process began and entering the code for that check run, dates to start from and finish and other criteria if necessary.

2. After running the first part of the check you run you get your first time vendor and preliminary report.

3. After preliminary report you would enter add on invoices to that check run or rushes and run another preliminary report which could potentially give you another first time vendor report as well.

4. Then you log on to system G and make sure the checks crossed over from system A to G and print your check copies, then print your actual checks and close out of system G.

5. The next step was to transfer disbursements to an Excel spreadsheet, add your headlines for that check run and sent it to an accountant upstairs to create an audit list. That was sent by email and returned by email to be printed out.

6. The last step was printing your disbursement journal and letting your supervisor or next person running checks that you were finished with that check run.

7. Next was matching high dollars(over 50,000),first time vendor report, audits and multiple check stubs before noon. All these checks had to be mailed by 5:00 that day or the following morning by 9:00 AM. Then match the rest of the checks.

Rules regarding backup for all checks:

All backup had to be original invoices or copies if not available.

All credits and previous payment documents had to be attached to pay if repayment had to be be made.

Such as if original check had been voided due to data entry error, wrong vendor number or printer errors.

If approval was need to pay make sure all invoices were signed before checks go upstairs to be signed.

Make sure the amount on the invoice matched the amount printed on the check stub. Also make sure the correct vendor number was the same as well. If different you would bring it to the attention of the Accounts Payable Manager or the Accounts Payable Assistant.

If doing checks for a certain department and the need to know when checks were cut let them know after check run was completed and that they were ready to be signed.

Always make sure your journal and audit check pages are printed before ending check run. Audits were any checks over 250,000 or a percentage of each check run.

These were put in a special folder so they would be checked over first and then signed.

Filing

Filing consisted of certain letters assigned to you to file after checks had been mailed. You had to sometimes create new file folders and make sure by Friday that your filing was completed for that week. The other part of filing consisted of interfiling check copies for co-workers who had other letters.

Statements

The other duties we were assigned were vendor statements. Going through the AS/400 you checked the invoice numbers to see if they were in the system, wrote down check numbers and mail dates as well if the checks had cleared the bank and what date they cleared. You also responded to the vendor inquiry by what method they preferred being either fax, phone or email in a timely manner to ensure resolving issues of past due invoices.



Email Usage

Email usage was very important as you had to maintain your vendor contact list, approval contact list for problem invoices and other pertinent information for your records. I also had sub folders I created in Outlook so I could easily find email messages for future reference if needed.

Computer Usage

Computer usage was for business purposes only. I used it to find vendor web sites if no contact information was provided or contact information provided was not correct. I also used Smartpages as a means to locate companies, 411 for phone numbers and lycos for research if further research needed.

Customer Service

Customer service skills were important as to be able to prioritize your day. Keeping track of what phone calls, faxes or other duties had to be done first to make your day a little easier. Using calendar feature by email, hand written notes or office calendar keep track of what needed to be done every day and crossing that task off when finished.

Previous Job Duties At RJW Transport:

Open all driver trip envelopes or trip sheets which had the drivers id number, truck number,trailer number and number of miles for that trip.

I would open the trip envelope and make sure all documents were scanned in and indexed correctly. These documents consisted of:

1. Bill Of Lading
2. Signed Delivery Receipt
3. Fuel Receipts
4. Receipts For Reimbursements

Such as toll receipts, hotel receipts, using their own credit or debit card to purchase gas, parts for RJW trucks and other any expenses

5. Scan in each document and trip sheet
6. Index all documents correctly

After indexing of all documents from all trip sheets, I would do customer billing ensuring that all the bill of lading, signed delivery receipt,load confirmation,misc house paperwork and if applicable lumper receipts.

My job was extremely important because all customer billing could not be done without the documents handed in by our drivers every day. You also had to copy certain documents like maintenance reports or vehicle inspection reports for payment to vendors. The accounting clerk position was important to bill customers so that RJW made money.

It was very important to know what documents were so that billing could be completed in a timely manner. In my role, I also would print out signed delivery receipts from LTL carriers by going to their websites. RJW utilized LTL carriers such as SAIA and Custom for states we did not deliver freight to. My job also included filing trip envelopes every day by truck unit number.

I used our software called TMW, scanners and EBE for indexing paperwork after being scanned.

It was very important to confirm the freight amounts per load by checking the load confirmation,dispatch screen for driver,address and pounds for freight. Accounting clerk was a very detailed and precise job. Making sure all information was correct, concise and ensuring all documentation was in the system.

Also had to work with dispatch and local dispatch to get documents if needed. I had a system where I prioritized my work,had email folders for coworkers,customers and dispatch personnel.
