Where it stands

Where the goods are: landed at destination, since 22 Jul 2026 16:48 AEST (the mailbox2026-07|19f88957c94a8698)
What the customer has been told: they book their own freight, so the journey updates are theirs; not yet told it arrived
Receivable: invoice 1038246 AUD 20,128.00 still due, 49 days overdue; the reminder not chased: answered "Not chased: settled under James's ruling"
What happens next: On hold: 1 question only James McNamara can answer is open on this trade. It is on the desk regardless; the questions are under "What is waiting, and on whom".. It is being finished by hand, off the desk; nothing is sent on it from here.

Where this trade really stands

B L Naidu & Sons owe AUD 20,128 on invoice 1038246, due 21 Aug; the pears landed 25 Jul and Nadan Reddy will pay only once credit notes are issued, which waits on James's AUD 39,500 settlement decision.

What is blocking it: Nadan Reddy wrote on 30 Sep "Kindly solve this issue so we can pay the balance" and on 8 Oct "Kindly issue credit notes for us to settle the account". His claim is for quality, not damage or temperature (25 Sep). James replied on 25 Sep that these were FOB trades and told him to take it to his insurer or shipping line. James's 2 Oct ruling approved an AUD 39,500 full-and-final offer.

Sources that disagree

Our records settle it: the bills stand against us. The AUD 2,200 recharge to Naidu stays open in James's settlement item.
3 Oct, Gmail, exports@: We asked Vision to invoice Naidu the AUD 2,200 origin charges, as Naidu booked and paid its own freight.
4 Oct, Gmail, bneexport@vision.com.au: Vision's export desk says it was asked to pay the local terminal charges and bill QC Fresh; we withdrew the request the same day.

Not known: Whether James will settle at AUD 39,500 with or without the AUD 2,200 recharge. Whether Naidu has received or accepted the 2 Oct AUD 39,500 offer; the record shows no reply to it. Whether Atradius cover applies to this invoice.

Risk: Cover not on the record. Invoice is overdue since 21 Aug and the customer is responsive, writing on 25 Sep, 30 Sep and 8 Oct, but is withholding payment until credit notes issue.}

Deposit and release

Release is standard. On the invoice terms AUD 20,128.00 falls due before release; received AUD 0.00; still to come AUD 20,128.00, chased on its own invoice. The documents go to the customer as normal.

Due before release: the instalment due on presentation of the documents and the balance, which the terms give no due event, as the invoice's own terms print them. What falls due on or after arrival is credit, and is not.

No release has been recorded on this desk for this trade.

All eleven steps

The eleven stages

A stage is not a column anybody writes. It is a projection over the evidence, rebuilt from it every time, so nothing here was asserted by a code path that happened to run. Where a trade sits is the highest of the first seven; what it owes is the last four, and a trade can be invoiced and on the water at once. This trade is at INVOICED.

stage	state, and what the evidence says	evidence
QUOTE needs our word	not reached no priced offer is carried on this trade yet. The 710 quotes priced since 1 May 2026 are deliberately not seeded: 313 of those quotes carry no freight figure at all and the fan-out multiplies a foreign price by the exchange rate twice, so loading them would put figures on the record that nobody can acquit. That decision is recorded here rather than left silent.	no evidence
ORDER needs our word	not reached not evidenced, and the trade is past it. This is a hole.	no evidence
TRADE OPENED needs our word	reached dated not stated, on a document, said by Carter & Associates on email	40 pieces of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below.
BOOKED needs counterparty word	reached dated 27 Sep 2026, on a document, said by VIF Export on email disputed, two readings, both shown, neither chosen.

ARRIVED needs counterparty word	not reached nothing on this trade evidences it yet.	no evidence
DELIVERED needs our word	not reached the proving document is not defined. James to state it. Until he states it, the only route is a trader recording delivery against one of four labelled proofs, and which one was used is stored.	no evidence
INVOICED needs document	reached dated 7 Aug 2026, on a document	9 pieces of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below.
PAID IN needs document	not reached nothing on this trade evidences it yet.	no evidence
PAID OUT needs document	part dated not stated, with no grade recorded. Part settled: what was invoiced and what has been received both print below.	no evidence
RECONCILED needs document	not reached the cost stack has not been built yet, so there is nothing to strike a result against	no evidence

This table answers which of the eleven are evidenced and which are not. WHEN each one moved, and on what, is on the timeline below under changes. A date there is the date the EVIDENCE carries, which is not always the date the thing happened: a container that arrived on Monday and was reported on Thursday is dated Thursday.

Nothing the old record says about this trade disagrees with the evidence this record holds.

Messages

What has happened, in one order

Everything the record holds on this trade — what was said, what was produced, what moved, what was paid, what was pressed and what was asked — on one line each, newest first, in Sydney time. It is one list and not seven, because a trader asking what happened on Tuesday should not have to read seven.

TEMHEM PTY LTD's bill INV 7145 / the trade is AUD 15,360.00, against AUD 0.00 on the purchase order. Which is right? (1038246)
The PO governs (canon Stage 10: we pay the order, not the delivery docket). quantity on Beurre Bosc Pears Premium True Comp 120-165 count : billed 640, ordered 629, AUD 264.00 over. The supplier has not been told anything.
Still open. Nothing has come back on this.

No, you need to check if the fruit supplier was paid. It seems Quenton cancelled via WhatsApp. That's why the new system needs to be accurate always, so when a trade changes, we use the desk and formal, clear and accurate emails are provided to stakeholders in a timely manner. Quenton causes chaos in WhatsApp with freight.

Nothing after those times is on this timeline, whether or not it happened. A press is recorded before anything it would change, so a refusal and a failure leave the same trail as a success.

The acts

No act can be pressed here: this surface is served with no way to tell one person from another, and a press recorded against a name anybody could type is the record this build exists to replace. Acts are recorded on the desk that knows who is signed in.
