GUIDES & REPORTS
The logistics CFO’s playbook to smarter AP
Transportation and logistics finance teams operate under relentless pressure: rising fuel and freight costs, shifting tariffs, staffing shortages, and supplier complexity. Every invoice looks different, and when AP relies on manual processes, slowdowns lead to delayed payments, poor cash-flow visibility and preventable margin loss.
This playbook is your practical guide to overcoming these industry-specific challenges with modern AP automation. You’ll learn how smarter, more connected processes can drive operational efficiency while protecting profitability.
What’s inside the eBook?
This playbook explores how CFOs and AP leaders can:
Reduce manual effort across terminals and hubs while keeping up with high-volume, multi-fee freight invoices
Eliminate costly errors, overpayments, and duplicates caused by changing tariffs, accessorial charges, and revised billing
Gain real-time visibility across routes, carriers, and assets to improve forecasting and cash-flow management
Use AI to strengthen control and compliance, catching anomalies, mismatched charges, and documentation gaps before they hit the ledger
Accelerate approvals and payments to maintain positive carrier relationships and capture early-payment discounts
Why logistics CFOs need to address challenges now
In logistics, when payments slow down, freight slows down. Manual AP creates operational drag: missed discounts, strained supplier relationships, delayed shipments, and limited insight into spend. Automation turns AP into a strategic advantage that keeps your network moving and your margins protected, especially as supply chain spread and tariff changes heap on added pressures.
