AI Agents for Distribution Vendor Chargeback Reconciliation

AI agents for distribution vendor chargeback reconciliation read supplier debit memos, chargeback notices and claim responses, match them to purchase orders, agreements and rebates, and flag unsupported or unrecovered amounts to dispute or claim. Finance and purchasing review exceptions instead of matching every item by hand.

Challenges We Solve

Where Vendor Chargeback Reconciliation Breaks Down

Distributors reconcile supplier chargebacks, debit memos and claim responses by hand against purchase orders and program terms.

Volume
Chargebacks and debit memos arrive from many suppliers
Notices come by email, portal and statement in different formats. Finance logs and codes each one manually.
Support
Charges are not matched to agreements
Matching a debit memo to the program, purchase order and receipt requires digging through several systems.
Claims
Claims on suppliers are submitted late or not at all
Ship-and-debit, price protection and rebate claims need data from sales and purchasing. Deadlines pass before claims are filed.
Short Pays
Short payments are not tracked to resolution
Suppliers pay less than claimed, and the difference sits unresolved on the account.
Disputes
Disputes lack evidence
Challenging a charge needs the purchase order, receipt and agreement terms assembled quickly. Time limits are missed.
Visibility
Nobody sees the net position by supplier
Open chargebacks, claims and credits are spread across the ledger and spreadsheets.
