Financial Reporting: The secret weapon for optimal shipping costs management

The management of international shipping presents specific challenges, requiring precise analyses and efficient management tools. OneChain meets this requirement with a financial reporting interface that is revolutionizing the way supply chain managers monitor and optimize their operations.

Complete Visibility on All Your Transports

The core of OneChain's financial reporting is based on its ability to offer complete visibility on all types of transport. Users can create various analyses, allowing anomalies and areas for optimization to be quickly identified. The interface not only makes it possible to control the breakdown of the transport budget according to various analysis dimensions, but also to monitor efficiency metrics. Imagine tracking the shares of budgets allocated to maritime versus air transport or analyzing the transport cost per piece carried — all this becomes possible with OneChain.

Diversified Analysis Dimensions

OneChain users can refine their analyses using various dimensions:

• By Transport : Granular analysis of each transport segment.
• By Freight Forwarder : Evaluation of the performances and costs associated with the various freight forwarders.
• By SKU or Product Reference : Monitoring of the financial impact at a very detailed level.
• By traffic (POL/POD/mode of transport) : Analysis of incoming and outgoing traffics, comparisons of transport modes

In-depth analysis approaches

OneChain offers two main approaches to take advantage of data:

1. Metric comparisons by dimension : Comparative tables provide a clear view of relative performance.
2. Monitoring the evolution of metrics over time : Dynamic charts allow you to visualize trends and adjust strategies accordingly

Easy export and integrations

Convenience is key for OneChain users. Financial reporting can be exported as Excel files for further analysis or presentations. For a smoother integration into your existing systems, Power BI connectors and classic API or EDI integrations are available, ensuring automatic transfer of information to ERP or billing software such as Sage or SAP.

OneChain's financial reporting functionality offers supply chain managers the opportunity to transform the management of their transport. By combining comprehensive visibility, multi-dimensional analytics, and seamless integrations, OneChain is positioned as an essential tool for optimizing costs and improving logistics performance.
