Why is managing inventory more important than the invoice?
Inaccurate invoices are symptomatic of an inaccurate inventory. It has been proven that reconciling your invoices to a centralized inventory vastly increases the opportunities for savings. It also reduces your reliance on carrier data. Because carriers have no visibility into customer cost centers or employee movement, they run the risk of providing inaccurate reporting. Systems that rely purely on invoice data, assume that the carrier’s invoice reflects the customer’s reality. These systems are missing up to 40% of potential operational savings.
