Overview
With IPR, 100% of carrier invoices are audited prior to remittance. IPR saves your customers’ accounts payable department from having to manage and reconcile multiple carrier payments by compiling all approved expenses into a single, consolidated invoice. Customers recover the time spent preparing remittance documents, sending ACH to carriers and processing invoices into ERP systems against open purchase orders.
How it works
For large enterprises or high-volume shippers that are integrated with the carriers via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), Invoice Payment Remittance (IPR) works seamlessly within existing information systems and payable procedures to eliminate invoice late fees and reduce the number of hours spent processing invoices into ERP systems.
