Reconcile

The right rate for the right shipment.

An invoice alone is not enough to check a transport cost. Find the selected offer or applicable rate card, then compare the same services, currencies and scope of charges.

OneChain brings these references together around the shipment. Zach prepares document data for supported formats; your team focuses on the lines that need a review.

Explain and decide

An extra charge to explain.

Fuel surcharge, waiting time, an additional service: a difference from the original offer does not prove a billing error. Supporting documents and purchasing terms help explain what changed.

Your team can accept an explanation or prepare a documented correction request. A detected difference is not a received credit: in your own tracking, separate the review, the request and the amount actually corrected.

Before you start

Analyze your transport spending
Which documents do we need?

The invoice, selected offer or applicable rate card, shipment references and evidence of any additional service. These give each difference a verifiable context.

How does invoice control connect to finance?

Start by separating review, decision, correction request and follow-up. Data and owners connect these steps to your financial process.

How do we compare different currencies?

Agree on a common currency and conversion rule. Compare the same services and scope of charges.

Your turn to review this invoice.

A €2,450 offer and a €2,550 invoice. Find the €100 extra charge, open the source document and prepare a credit request draft. Actions stay within this demonstration.

Separate a detected discrepancy from the accounting result

Matching compares expected and invoiced amounts, the items and the supporting documents to review. Teams examine discrepancies in the shipment context and retain the business decision.

The selected data and responsibilities connect the review to the financial process. Exchanges with financial tools are scoped around your organization.
