No customer or goods held yet (1038320)
not placedWhere it stands
- Where the goods are: no shipment in flight (no booking, departure or arrival held)
- What the customer has been told: nothing yet
- Receivable: nothing yet; no invoice is raised
- 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.
Where this trade really stands
Trade 1038320 (Whitton Citrus Late Lane Navel, Korean label) has no customer allocated, no booking and no shipment held; whether its second container ever shipped is unanswered, and nothing is invoiced or owed on it.
What is blocking it: The record holds no booking, departure or sale invoice for 1038320, and Xero names no customer on it. On 31 Aug Rick at Whitton Citrus said the transfer certificate would follow "upon dispatch tomorrow", and on 1 Sep our desk asked whether the container had been loaded. No answer is on the record. Quenton's open question on whether the second container shipped settles it.
Sources that disagree
- Whether the container was loaded is not settled by our own mail; James's own account is the first check.
2 Sep, Gmail, exports@: Jae Lee at Prompt Freight wrote that James said on Monday that the container was already loaded.
31 Aug, Gmail, exports@: Our line to Prompt Freight was that the transfer certificate and transport detail were still outstanding, with dispatch due the next day.
| Date | What the record says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 31 Aug | Rick at Whitton Citrus sent crop monitoring report 1651-06 and said the transfer certificate would follow upon dispatch the next day, as he needed transport detail to complete it. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 31 Aug | Jae Lee at Prompt Freight acknowledged the crop monitoring report and said he would await the transfer certificate. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 1 Sep | Exports@ asked Rick for urgent confirmation of loading, CFS delivery date and the transfer certificate, as Prompt Freight had flagged the vessel cut-off. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 1 Sep | Exports@ asked James whether he told Prompt Freight the container was already loaded, as Jae Lee's 2 Sep email says he did. The reply is not on the record. | Gmail, exports@ |
| 23 Sep | No sale invoice in Xero names 1038320 and the old book shows the customer as blank. James corrected the customer record on 25 Sep. | desk record |
| 24 Sep | Open question to Quenton: did the second Whitton container ship, or does the 2,520-carton order close at the 1,260 cartons on 1038317? | desk record |
Not known: Whether the second Whitton container shipped, and on what bill of lading Who the customer is, since the 25 Sep correction is not shown on the record Whether Whitton's onboarding review is finished Whether the transfer certificate was ever issued Incoterm, quantity and prices on this trade
Risk: No receivable exists on this trade, so credit cover (Atradius) is not on the record and does not apply yet. The risk is an unshipped or unattributed container with a Korean transfer certificate still outstanding.
Also: Confirm customer allocation on 1038320 in Xero, James, Mon 12 Oct

The ledger
Nothing in the ledger is linked to this trade. A ledger document with no link is a gap owned by Obsidian Advisory, not a guess.
Invoiced not stated, and the ledger carries nothing outstanding against it. Billed to us not stated, and the ledger carries nothing outstanding against it.
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.
Changes in Xero
Each change is described in plain words. Nothing is made in Xero until James or Quenton presses its button, and each one made is recorded as a draft note for Obsidian.

What this trade made
No result has been struck for this trade yet. 3 cost lines are held against its cost stack so far. The desk strikes one for itself once the actual cost stack is complete — nothing here waits on a person to press it.
Documents
The documents
The three a trade must be able to show
| document | is it in the folder |
|---|---|
| purchase order | nothing in this folder is named as one |
| commercial invoice | nothing in this folder is named as one |
| packing list | nothing in this folder is named as one |
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.
9 files sit in this trade's folder, of which 0 files are typed as a document and 9 files could not be typed from what they print.
Dates
Its calendar
No dated event on this trade at all. No departure, no arrival, no due date and nothing owed by a date. A trade with no date on it is a trade nothing can chase.
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
4 messages came in on this trade with nothing going out after them. The oldest is Carter & Associates Finance on 7 Oct 2026 15:10 AEDT, 2 days ago: Re: Re: Al Bakrawe account — payment of the undisputed balance. The last thing that went out from us on this trade was 1 Oct 2026 14:59 AEST.
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.
| what is missing | what it stops | who settles it |
|---|---|---|
| the customer | The customer is not evidenced outside the old book (1038320) | James McNamara open 16 days no by-when set |
| whitton second container | Did the second Whitton container (the trade) ever ship, or does the 2,520-carton order close at the 1,260 cartons? If it is still to ship, is Whitton's onboarding review finished first? (1038317, 1038320) | Quenton Carter open 15 days no by-when set |
| An open question | This customer's trade: which incoterm (the trade)? (1038320) | James McNamara open 6 hours no by-when set |
Freight
The freight
The estimate
Cost so far held in more than one currency; not held: international freight, produce.
Not in this estimate: DAFF inspection fees and any other DAFF charge billed to Carter and Associates direct are not in this estimate, and no DAFF permit or tonnage is priced in it either.
The card this estimate was struck from is not named on it.
No shipment is recorded on this trade.
Freight cost not known: no forwarder bill is linked to this trade in our copy of Xero, and none is in its folder. The rate card is a list rate and is a quoting figure, never a cost. Liam Fraser can supply the invoice. Owner: James McNamara.
No departure or arrival date, carrier, vessel or weight is recorded on this shipment yet: each is read off the forwarder's own document, and prints as a gap until then.

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. No consignment stage on this trade is evidenced at all.
| 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. |

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 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.

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.
