Freight and demurrage validation checks each carrier and terminal charge against two references: the service contract you signed and the physical record of what happened. Free-time windows are checked against actual gate-out, accessorials against the contracted tariff, rates against the agreed rate. Each overcharge is reported with its evidence chain, and the dispute letter is drafted with that evidence attached.
Carrier invoices are long, arrive late, and reference documents that live in three different systems. That is why they are usually paid as billed.
The clock started on the wrong event or ignored the free days in the contract. The difference is billed by the day.
The container was returned inside the window, but the gate record was never checked against the invoice.
Charges that appear on the invoice but not in the contracted tariff, billed because nobody had the tariff open.
The rate on the invoice is not the rate in the service contract, by a margin small enough to pass a glance.
The same movement billed twice, under two invoice numbers, weeks apart.
A dispute is filed and never followed. Nobody tracks whether the credit arrived.
Every charge checked against what was signed and what physically happened, with the evidence attached.
Each line on the carrier invoice rated against the contract and the movement record.
The bill of lading, the terminal record and the contract clause behind every disputed charge, held together.
Disputes drafted automatically with the evidence attached, for your team to review and send.
Each claim tracked to recovery — credit received or written off — not just to submission.
Bills of lading (including EDI 856), terminal and gate records, carrier invoices, and the service contract with its rate schedules and amendments.
It drafts them, with the evidence attached. Your team reviews and sends them, and Nexus tracks each one until the credit arrives or the claim is closed.
No. The contract package is read together — master agreement, amendments and rate schedules — and the terms are held as the reference every charge is checked against.
The ones a contract and a physical record can verify: demurrage, detention, accessorials and contracted rates. Which charges and documents apply is configured at deployment for the carriers you use.
How the reconciliation engine works end to end, from intake to close.
The commercial terms every charge and invoice is checked against.
Purchase order, receipt and invoice reconciled before payment.
