Lojistic will take care of the rest. **How Much Does It Cost To Process a Shipping Invoice?** - The average cost to process a single FedEx, UPS and/or DHL invoice is $12 - $35 - The average time spent per week processing shipping invoices and manually entering general ledger codes is 30 minutes - 2 hours - Inaccuracies and billing errors found on UPS/FedEx invoices represent 1% - 3.5% of the total invoice amount Add all of this adds up and your business is most likely spending hundreds or thousands each month just processing and paying your carrier invoices! That’s a lot of “soft cost” time and money dedicated to managing shipping invoices. Many businesses don’t account for these types of expenses when considering ways to reduce their overall shipping spend. Could your business use a few hours of staff time back each week? Use Lojistic’s [Audit + Recovery + Pay](https://www.lojistic.com/freight-audit-and-payment/parcel-audit-recovery-pay) service. We’ll ensure all of your shipping invoices are audited, accurate AND paid on time, helping you avoid carrier late payment fees. ![Rich Harkey Headshot](https://www.lojistic.com/assets/public/users/rich.png) Author Rich Harkey Rich Harkey Senior Strategy Manager Rich Harkey is a results-driven professional with extensive experience in the logistics and supply chain industry.
