Freight Invoice Automation for Dynamics 365 Finance & SCM

Manual Freight Matching Costing You Time & Money?
Streamline Freight Reconcilation Without Leaving D365

Freight costs are among the most significant and error-prone expenses in modern supply chains. If you’re still reconciling freight invoices manually, you are leaving money on the table, slowing down your month-end close, and introducing risk into your financial reporting.

The Freight Invoice Automation Solution (FIA) by Avantiico is built for and embedded within Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management to automate your freight invoice reconciliation process.

Why Freight Reconciliation Needs a Modern Solution

Eliminate Manual, Time-Consuming Freight Invoice Matching

With hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of freight records processed monthly, quarterly, or annually, manual invoice matching is time-consuming, error-prone, and high-risk process. Many finance teams still rely on spreadsheets and late-cycle corrections to reconcile freight charges across carriers, warehouses, and systems.

Without automation, freight reconciliation becomes a bottleneck that chokes financial close, increases the risk of costly errors, and makes it nearly impossible to scale with growing shipment volumes.

Key Features & Use Cases

Automate Freight Invoice Imports, Matching, & Month-End Close in D365 Finance

Freight Invoice Automation handles freight imports, matching, and exceptions automatically, improving invoice accuracy and reducing manual workload in Dynamics 365 Finance. Explore the FIA resource library for more information.
