Step 2. There are two options to create a new bill: manually or via TruckGPT and choose manual entry

Step 3. Fill out relevant information

In a bill reference, it must be assigned either to truck, driver, load or other.

Step 4. Choose the nature and bill amount

Bills natures should be chosen from the given list. This list can be added or edited via Settings.
