invoice broker directtly , already with factoring

Yes, get a release letter from factoring company for the broker needed

 

What does the contract with the factoring company say? Some allow it by contract, some require all invoices to go thru them.

 

Whoa there.

The broker is your customer, the factoring company is your service provider.

How you handle the ap is not the factoring company's business.

You use them at a fee to get cash flow moving, and in some cases they are used to maintain it but they can't tell you what you do to bill directly.

I have yet to see a contract with a factoring company that makes them your exclusive ap source for your customers, and if there is a company like that, don't deal with them.

 

If you have not factored that broker yet, you do not have to.

If you have, then you need to pay the factoring co to release you.

 

Ask Apex for release letter if you’ve already invoiced them through apex in the past. Apex contract let’s you do that. I used to be with them.
If you never invoiced this broker through factoring, then don’t worry and invoice the broker directly.

 

There are carbonless invoice formats that you can use. Some of them come in a book format or as individual invoices. These are manual paper invoice where you have to write in the information. That way you give the broker a copy and you keep one for your own records. Take a look at trucking invoices and envelopes here.
