The Hidden Cost of Manual Transportation Allocation 

Global enterprises face an impossible challenge: tracking and budgeting transportation spend at high-level budgeting categories while needing precise allocation down to the GL, or even SKU, level. Manual processes can't scale with your complexity, resulting in:

  • Hours of manual labor costs with error-prone results 
  • Inability to allocate transportation costs to responsible parties 
  • Lack of visibility into true transportation spend and cost to serve 
  • Delayed monthly close cycles that impact decision-making
