Factoring companies typically advance most of an invoice right away and hold the rest as a reserve. When the broker pays, the reserve is released, less the factoring fee.
For each invoice, record
- Load, broker and invoice amount.
- The date factored and the advance received.
- The fee.
- The date the broker paid and the reserve released.
