Freight bill audit vs revenue reconciliation: what is the difference?A freight bill audit checks what you pay carriers: duplicate charges, wrong rates, accessorials you never agreed to. Revenue reconciliation checks the other side, whether every cost you paid actually reached a customer invoice. Brokers sit between both, and almost every audit vendor works only the payable side.Read the guideWhy do freight brokers fail to rebill detention and lumper charges?Because of sequencing, not diligence. The customer invoice goes out when the load delivers. The accessorial arrives days later on a carrier settlement, after the invoice is already gone. Rebilling then means reopening a closed invoice for a small amount, so in practice nobody does.Read the guideWhat does a freight broker reconciliation report contain?A line for every load where the two sides did not agree, grouped by finding type, with a count and subtotal for each. Every figure carries the source document and line it came from, so any line can be checked without redoing the work, and the total is annualised so a month reads as a run rate.Read the guide
