Key Features of Consignment Mismatch Handling

The mismatch module compares vendor records with customer bookings and resolves the differences at the right stage, so billing stays accurate and disputes stay rare.

Consignment Mismatch Detection

Detect discrepancies in shipment weights or charges whenever vendor and booking records don't align, before the difference reaches an invoice.

receipt_long

Accurate Billing Adjustments

Once a mismatch is confirmed, the billing correction applies immediately, so customers are charged on verified data every time.

tune

Flexible Resolution

Resolve mismatches before invoice creation or after, whichever suits the shipment and the customer relationship.

visibility

Early Error Identification

Spot mismatches early and the corrections stay small: fewer delays, fewer repeated fixes, fewer escalations.

Operational Efficiency

Automated mismatch handling keeps billing cycles short and data clean, without adding work for hub staff.

Trust & Transparency

Verified records and consistent correction processes give vendors and customers a billing system they can rely on.

Key Benefits of Consignment Mismatch Handling

From billing accuracy to vendor trust, each benefit protects your margins and keeps vendor-customer relationships steady through automated mismatch resolution.

Accuracy in Billing

Our system identifies mismatches and corrects the billing on its own, which means fewer errors in your accounts and less time spent chasing them.

Operational Efficiency

Catching mismatches early keeps work moving, cutting the delays and rework that come from discrepancies found after dispatch.

tune

Flexibility

Handle a mismatch before or after invoice creation, whichever stage suits the shipment and the customer.

handshake

Trust & Transparency

Consistent correction processes and verified records mean vendors and customers can both trust the numbers on the invoice.

Precision Control for Every Hub

Verified weights, checked dimensions, and forced audits keep consignment data honest across every hub in your network.

weight

Weight Mismatch Detection

The system compares volumetric and dead weight captured at your scales against the customer's declaration. Validation runs in real time, and shipments outside tolerance can be held automatically.

straighten

Dimension Verification

Sensors at hub intake verify L-W-H declarations against shipment manifests, so volumetric billing is right and revenue doesn't leak through wrong dimensions.

assignment_turned_in

Scan-Audit Workflow

Hub managers get a forced verification step. A discrepancy has to be approved or corrected before the shipment moves downstream.

add_alert

Automated Alerts

When a critical mismatch is logged, shippers, accounts, and hub managers are notified by SMS, email, or webhooks, so the right people know before the invoice is prepared.

Three-Step Mismatch Resolution

Physical scans feed digital records, and discrepancies surface in three steps.

1

Hub Arrival Scan

The parcel is scanned at the inbound conveyor, and sensors capture its weight and dimensions on the spot.

2

Manifest Comparison

Softpal compares the scanned ID against the original booking data in the CMS cloud within milliseconds.

3

Automated Resolution

Within tolerance, the shipment moves on. Outside tolerance, an audit log is created and billing updates automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the standard tolerance levels?expand_more

Admins can define tolerance levels globally or per shipper, such as ±100g or 2%. Anything inside the window is auto-approved to keep hubs moving; outliers are flagged for review.

How are re-weighing protocols managed?expand_more

On a discrepancy, the system can trigger a "Re-weigh" command on secondary certified scales. A photo of the parcel on the scale is often captured as digital evidence for billing disputes.

Are customers notified automatically?expand_more

Yes. Shippers receive "Adjustment Advisories" through the portal or API, including the reason for the change and the updated shipment cost. That heads off most manual support inquiries.
