We used a different AP provider for a few months before Expedock. They had low accuracy and a lot of cases they could not support. Expedock was able to automate complex cases and documents based on our flow chart and process.

It’s been amazing. I never miss billing an invoice anymore. I have a report of all the invoices I need to bill, and all the charges are already there. All I need to do is post it! It saves me 5-10 minutes for each invoice.

Expedock Process
See How It Works
- The entry, reconciliation, and posting takes 1 min of your operator’s time to forward us the invoice.
- Expedock uses Consol ID to find the right shipments on your Transportation Management System.
- The invoice will be reconciled against accrual for the corresponding consol.
- Expedock will enter and post based on an agreed upon standard operating procedure.
- The manager and operator receive a copy of all shipments without accruals through daily reports.
- Expedock will alert the operator and manager if there’s no shipment found on your Transportation Management System.
- Expedock or your team creates the consol/shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Expedock work?
Expedock AI can extract and reconcile any unstructured data and post data directly onto any TMS (Transportation Management System).
All you have to do is forward your documents to Expedock and we will take care of the rest!
What happens when there is no shipment found?
We notify your team via email that no shipment was found based on the reference keys available on the invoice. For most of our customers, we usually create the shipment for you as long as we have access to the pre-alert document packet.
What happens when there are no accruals?
We flag that there was no accrual upon reconciliation for a particular shipment under a particular operator. Depending on the SOP, we can automatically post the invoice, enter it as a WIP, or hold off.
Do you support E-Documents?
Yes. We support all the Shipment, Consol, Brokerage, and Payables Modules.
What is the turnaround time?
It depends on the volume of documents processed. But generally, our service level agreement looks like this for the following document or transaction types for invoice processing:
- Carrier Invoices: 1 hour (Maximum of 10 per batch)
- Broker Invoices: 4 hours
- Trucker Invoices: 6-8 hours
- Urgent Invoices: 30 mins (Maximum of 5 per batch)
How do we know what supplier docs Expedock received? Is there a feedback loop for us to check the processing steps?
There are multiple ways for us to receive files from our clients. Many of them prefer to forward the PDF or scanned copy of the document to an email address - customername@expedock.com.
You will receive email and dashboard notifications when we’ve received your files.
How do you handle multiple reference numbers for one invoice?
If there are multiple shipment numbers for an invoice, we follow the breakdown of amounts to post on which shipment number.
Otherwise, we do confirm with the customer if we will just split it equally.
