Logistics Finance Is Relentlessly Complex

Thousands of invoices, hundreds of carriers, dozens of currencies, and rate structures that change monthly. Generic AP tools crumble. You need automation built for the way logistics actually moves.

Carrier & Fuel Invoice Volume

Thousands of carrier, fuel, port, and customs invoices flood in every month, each with its own format, rate structure, and approval chain.

10K+ invoices per month

Multi-Currency Cross-Border

Payments to carriers, customs authorities, and port operators across dozens of countries and currencies. FX exposure and settlement complexity at every step.

145 currencies supported

Rate Mismatches & Disputes

Carrier rates don’t match invoiced amounts. Fuel surcharges, detention, demurrage, and accessorials create endless disputes that drag on for weeks.

20%+ invoices disputed

Fragmented Operational Visibility

Ocean, air, truck, and rail data lives in separate systems. Finance has no unified view of spend by lane, mode, or carrier.

How It Works

From Carrier Invoice to Multi-Currency Payment

Every logistics invoice runs through the same three stages. Here’s what each one looks like in your environment.

STEP 01

Capture Carrier, Customs, and Fuel Invoices from Any Channel

Invoices arrive from ocean carriers, air forwarders, truckload and LTL providers, fuel vendors, customs brokers, and port operators, each in a different format. OAN captures them all, extracts header and line data with AI, and routes for validation. Your AP team sees only exceptions.

  • Multi-channel capture (EDI, email, portal, PDF, scan)
  • AI data extraction for carrier-specific formats
  • Auto-coding to GL by mode, lane, and cost center
  • Exception-only routing to your operations team

STEP 02

Validate Against Rate Cards and Shipment Legs

Carrier invoices get matched against contracted rate cards, shipment legs, and accessorial rules automatically. Fuel surcharges, detention, demurrage, and tariff adjustments all validated before the invoice ever reaches approval. Matches auto-clear, disputes route with full context.

  • Rate card matching against contracted terms
  • Fuel surcharge and accessorial validation
  • Detention and demurrage dispute detection
  • Shipment-leg reconciliation with context
