ENE Trade, 1,260 cartons Late Lane Navel Class 1 to PUS, sailed 6 Sep 2026, AUD 42,792.00 (1038317)
9 PAID INWhere it stands
- Where the goods are: landed at destination, since 22 Sep 2026 12:00 AEST (Carter & Associates (email:exports@carterandassoc.com.au|1a0c8e92c2101822))
- What the customer has been told: they book their own freight, so the journey updates are theirs; not yet told it arrived
- 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.
Where this trade really stands
ENE Trade Pty Ltd owes AUD 12,792 on 1038317, the Late Lane navels landed at Busan on 22 Sep: their price, labelling and half-inspection deductions are accepted, the revised invoice is with Matt Choi, and the balance waits on his payment.
What is blocking it: Matt Choi disputed the invoiced price on 28 Sep and asked on 5 and 7 Oct for labelling (AUD 693.00) and half the first inspection (AUD 1,000.00) to come off. On 7 Oct we accepted and sent the revised invoice, total AUD 42,792.00, with AUD 30,000.00 received 5 Oct. He has not yet answered, and Xero's sale line shows the invoice fully paid, which needs correcting.
Sources that disagree
- Xero shows the invoice fully paid, but only AUD 30,000.00 has been received; the Xero copy or an allocation is wrong, and our own records settle it.
7 Oct, Gmail, exports@: Obsidian: invoice amended in Xero, AUD 30,000.00 allocated, balance AUD 12,792.00.
9 Oct, Xero: Xero sale line 1038317: total AUD 42,792, paid AUD 42,792, unpaid AUD 0.

| 22 Sep | MSC Shina V landed at Busan (ETD 6 Sep); bill of lading ZIMUSYD8029169. Payment due 14 days from arrival. | trade folder |
| 28 Sep | James sent Matt Choi the corrected invoice at AUD 39 / 39 / 36 (AUD 47,859.00) with the $1,000 line removed; Matt replied the same evening that he had not agreed it and would accept only $35 / $35 / $31. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 1 Oct | James ruled: settle at AUD 37 / 37 / 32, and no to the AUD 2,000 inspection and labelling cost, price only. | decision page |
| 5 Oct | Revised invoice sent at AUD 37 / 37 / 32 on the packed 212 / 621 / 427 cartons: AUD 44,485.00, due 6 Oct. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 5 Oct | Matt Choi asked us to deduct labelling AUD 693.00 and 50% of the first inspection (AUD 1,000.00), and said he had sent AUD 30,000. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 7 Oct | We accepted the deductions and sent the revised invoice: AUD 42,792.00, less AUD 30,000.00 received 5 Oct, balance AUD 12,792.00. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 7 Oct | Atul Sangvekar (Obsidian) confirmed Xero amended, the AUD 30,000.00 allocation retained, balance AUD 12,792.00, and reminders switched off. | Gmail, exports@ |
Not known: Whether the Xero paid figure is a stale copy or a wrong allocation. When Matt Choi will pay the AUD 12,792.00. Whether the Xero due date was moved to 6 Oct (14 days from arrival). Atradius cover on ENE Trade is not on the record.
Risk: Cover not on the record. The balance was due 6 Oct on the first invoice terms; Matt has paid AUD 30,000.00 and said he will clear the rest once the revised invoice is with him, so he is engaged, not silent.
Also: Decide queued item: correct buy price on PO, James, Fri 9 Oct
Also: Chase Matt for AUD 12,792.00 if unpaid, the desk, Mon 12 Oct
Next: Check Xero allocation on 1038317; propose correction, the desk, Fri 9 Oct

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.
Due before release: the instalment due from the invoice date, 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.
The receipt and payment rows and the ledger's own settled figure do not agree on this trade. Each, as it stands:
- paid out: 10619 / 1038317 to WHITTON CITRUS PTY LTD. The ledger says AUD 8,000.00 has been settled, and 2 rows against it come to AUD 16,000.00. Two readings, both shown, neither chosen. Owner: Obsidian Advisory.
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.

After the trade: quoted against billed
Not compared. The desk holds no quote stack for this trade (it was quoted before the desk priced quotes, or the stack was never written), so there is no quoted cost to set against the bills. The quote is a document in the trade folder and a quote of record is filed on Drive; its prices are not in the record as cost lines.
This trade is open, with its bills in. Reviewed 9 Oct 2026.

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 IN.
| 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 |
3 pieces of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below. |
| BOOKED needs counterparty word |
not reached not evidenced, and the trade is past it. This is a hole. |
no evidence |
| DEPARTED needs document |
reached dated not stated, on a document disputed, two readings, both shown, neither chosen.
|
1 piece of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below. |
| 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 6 Sep 2026, on a document |
3 pieces of evidence. Each move is a line on the timeline below. |
| PAID IN needs document |

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. |

| 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.

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.

On hold: the trade shows departed but not booked. Missing: the forwarder's booking confirmation, which the forwarder supplies. Record it with the press below, or settle the disagreement. James McNamara settles it.
What takes it forward
ARRIVED is reached by pressing one of its own acts, and PAID OUT 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.
