The path from messy invoices to a usable recovery worksheet

Distribution cost tracking and invoice reconciliation engagements follow the same backbone whether you book a full cost audit or a single-account invoice review. The depth changes; the sequence does not.

1. Intake and scope lock

   We confirm lanes, vendors, months in scope, and whether an on-site warehouse kickoff is needed. You receive a document checklist before any fee is finalised.

2. Secure document intake

   Contracts, rate sheets, invoices, credit notes, and shipment registers arrive in a shared pack. We map ledger sources before line matching begins.

3. Line-item reconciliation

   Each in-scope invoice line is tagged matched, disputed, or unresolved. Disputed lines cite the contract clause or operational record that supports the exception.

4. Draft findings review

   Your finance and logistics contacts review the draft. Clarifications and known operational context are folded in before the pack is final.

5. Final report and walkthrough

   You receive the findings report, recovery worksheet, and a closing call. We separate recoverable exceptions from costs that should stay on your books.
