Barakat Vegetables & Fruits Col.L.C, 4,802 Green Skin Seedless to DXB, invoiced 9 Mar 2026, AUD 21,609.00 (1038069)
10 PAID OUTWhere it stands
- Where the goods are: booked with the carrier, not yet departed (the shipment record)
- What the customer has been told: nothing yet; not yet told the freight was booked
- Receivable: nothing; the invoice is paid
- What happens next: On hold: 1 question only Quenton Carter 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. The folder still needs a purchase order, a commercial invoice and a packing list.

Deposit and release
Release is standard. Our copy of Xero is too old to say what is paid today; payment is chased on its own invoice.
No instalment is recorded on this invoice, so the whole invoice is due before release.
No release has been recorded on this desk for this trade.
Every receipt in, every payment out and every claim is on the timeline below under payments and claims, each with its date, its counterparty and its currency. What is above is the position; what is below is how it got there.

This trade cannot show a purchase order, a commercial invoice and a packing list to anybody who asks for them. That is not a stage it has failed to reach: it is a paper it cannot produce. Owner: James McNamara.
Every document on this trade, each time it was issued, what it prints and who holds it, is on the timeline below under documents. This section answers only whether the trade can show its papers, which is a different question from when each one was made.

Dates
Its calendar
A cut-off is not on this record: there is no column for one on the shipment or the trade, so none can appear here however many are in the forwarder's mail.
What is waiting
What is waiting, and on whom
3 things are missing, behind 3 open items: the same missing fact is filed once for each document it stops, so the rows below are the facts and the counts are the consequences. An age is how long the ITEM has been on the record, not how long the thing it describes has been true.

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 PAID OUT.
| 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 |

not reached nothing on this trade evidences it yet. |

| ARRIVED needs counterparty word |

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 |
part dated 9 Mar 2026, on a document. This stage needs BOTH the commercial invoice as a document on the trade AND a matching sales invoice in the ledger. The invoice document on the trade is the half that is missing. Owner: Obsidian Advisory. |
1 piece of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below. |
| PAID IN needs document |

no evidence |
| PAID OUT needs document |
reached dated 23 Jun 2026, with no grade recorded |

| RECONCILED needs document |

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.
What disagrees with the old record
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.

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.
Actions on this trade
The acts
James McNamara, general manager, signed in on your own link. Every press below is recorded against this name. There is no way to press as somebody else, because there is no shared token and nothing in the address bar says who you are.
At ORDER
What is owed while a trade sits here: the grower's supply confirmation or a trader's attestation of a verbal one, and the allocation cross-check. Late here means: a purchase order or a booking is about to leave with supply unconfirmed.

Send
Nothing on this trade has been issued by this desk yet, so there is nothing to send from here. Press "issue a document" to produce the purchase order, commercial invoice and packing list; each gets a Send. Documents handed over from the old system are on Drive, not on this machine, and are not sent from here.
What takes it forward
TRADE OPENED is reached by pressing one of its own acts, and INVOICED is reached by pressing one of its own acts. A press before its evidence exists comes back asking for the evidence; it is never an error and never drops what was typed.
Move it on
It is at ORDER. The estate moves a card itself when the evidence lands; moving it by hand asks what shows it, and the trade's own messages and documents are the taps.
Only stages ahead of this one. A card that has gone forward wrongly is put right with “correct a fact”, which writes the old value, the new one, who and when; walking a trade backwards through the stages would leave the record saying it happened twice.
