FedEx Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Changes

Effective Wednesday, May 26, 2021, the FedEx EDI weekly shipping invoice files will now contain late fees for invoices that are not paid by the due date. This includes campus invoices for shipping charges, duty and taxes, custom fees, VAT (Value-Added Tax), and merchandise supplies. The late fees will be expensed to your UAccess Financials Accounts.

This will not apply to departments with invoicing linked to the weekly shipping invoices, as those are paid electronically every week. Invoices can be reviewed in UAccess Analytics > General – Financial Management > FedEx Report.

Departments can avoid any impact to expenditures from additional charges or fees by transitioning their FedEx accounts to electronic billing. Elimination of paper invoices provides:

  • Reduction in campus workload
  • Negotiated discounts on shipments
