Web Invoice

EDI in conjunction with our AP department is working toward eliminating paper invoices!  While we strive to exchange documents electronically whenever possible, we do understand the cost associated with EDI may not be practical for all of our partners. For this reason, we created a new tool called Web Invoice. The neat thing about this new tool is that it is a simple spreadsheet that can be saved onto multiple computers. When the file is uploaded into our secure website, the user will receive an automatic email confirmation. There is NO COST associated with using this tool.

As you know, exchanging documents electronically creates a quicker turnaround in processing orders.  More importantly, electronic invoices increases speedy payments to our vendors. We want to grow in our partnership and look forward to working with you on automating the payment process.

If you are interested in submitting invoices with this tool, please contact our EDI Rollout Team at EDIRolloutRequest@aafes.com with following information in your e-mail:

Company Name:       (Required)
Vendor Code:             (Vendor Code that AAFES assigned for your company - optional)
DUNS:                          (9 digits DUNS number - optional)
Contact Name:           (Person submitting Invoices - Required)
Phone Number:         (Required)
Email Address:           (Required)
Type of Browser:       (i.e Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox - Optional)

Download Web Invoice Form

To download:
We prefer this option since it is much easier to download. For Google Chrome users, click on the "Download Web Invoice Form" link above. The file will download to your download folder that you predefined in Chrome. To open the file, the downloaded file appears on the lower left corner of your Chrome screen, simply double click on it or you may need to go to your Chrome download folder.

For Internet Explorer users, since IE doesn't support the download attribute anymore (cannot click to download), please point a pointer over the "Download Web Invoice Form" link above, click on the right button on your mouse, select "Save target as...". This next step is very important. Please select a location on your PC to save the file and finally click SAVE button to save the file (make sure that the file extension is .xlsm not .htm). To open the form, go to location where the form is saved and click on the file to open it.

For other browser users, you may try either method above. If none of them works please let us know.
