AIMS

To address the problems related to advance and bulk
payments and consignment goods.

Exporters receiving advance payment often do not have an
invoice or order number ready to include in the UCR.

Bulk payments require the processing of individual
amounts

The processing of bulk payments is time-consuming and
not efficient

Explanation of slides 4, 5, 6 & 7

Up to 11th character/digit the UCR is exactly the same.

For the next 6 digits – 12 to 17 – the exporter must create a customer code for the client to whom he exports,
i.e., it must be 6 digits long. The exporter decide how to compile this code limited to 6 digits. It may also
reflects he payer.

The next character, 18, will indicate the month, i.e., A = Jan, B= Feb, etc.

The next 2 characters, 19 & 20, is the sequence of the export for the month up to 99. That is option 1 (slide 5).

If the exporter has to send more than 99 (i.e. 111) consignments in January to the same client, then he goes
over to M = Jan, N =Feb, etc. So the 111th export in January will be “M11” on the 18, 19 & 20th digits. That is

To reduce the number of transactions to be reported on BOP for bulk payments. i.e., where one payment
Annexure 4.3
option 2 (Slide 6).
covers these 111 export consignments, the exporter quote any one of these bulk UCR numbers & the amount
of, say, R111m .

Our system will go and match it off against all the exports to this particular client for January, by using only
one of the UCR numbers generated in January (Scenario 1, Slide 7)

If client make two payments of say R99 m and R12 m, then we will mark off the R99 m against the first 99
export consignments. The next R12 m will be use to mark off the next 12 export consignments (Scenario 2,
slide 7). Thus, only one transaction need to be processed over BOP.
