Waste Transfer Notes - Electronic Version

Most recent waste transfer note from the EA (England only) is now available in electronic form that allows the form to be typed into and saved for reference (as opposed to printing out and manually writing):

Also worth reading most recent update on their site as rules have/are changing.

    I have set up its Sage Accounts the means of typing out a WTN automatically everytime waste is entered into the accounts package. This means that I can bill the client if appropriate as well.

    When I print an invoice I have the option of printing a WTN as well (but with a different layout to the invoice, obviously).

    I do wonder how may people actually bother to issue WTN's though? I have had many handed back by a customer who can't see the point in them!
  • I dont issue WTN's to the client as most of the time there not in anyway, but to be honest most people arent aware of the rules/regulations regarding trade waste and in my experience generally have no interest either, so i dont bother.

    I do however need to produce one at the tip, and when i remember, keep a copy as well, you get a reciept from the tip anyway, so there is a paper trail. I have noticed that even though on my WTN's i use the code for green waste, that on the reciept it always just shows the code for general waste!

    Nick,

    How are you doing that in Sage - are you (ab)using a special function or does Sage have some means of generating documents?

    We use QB and would love to do that - but not sure if I technically can or just missing the logic of how to do !?!

    We do a reasonable amount of commercial waste removal so do need an audit trail (not least of which to use to get paid ;-)

    It is to do with using certain product codes and generating a template from which to print from which has the necessary WTN info.

    This means that when I type a waste product code on an invoice it can be printed off - then I can print it using a different template and a WTN is generated but without fees from the invoice etc.

    Clever stuff eh?
