How do you bill storage fees per pallet in a 3PL warehouse?

To bill storage fees per pallet in a 3PL warehouse, record each client's pallets in and out, calculate daily or weekly pallet counts, apply the client's rate table for storage and handling, prepare monthly statements, and send billing data to the ERP.
