Calculate and manage freight costs

As a supplement to our EIKONA Spot Price, a simple tariff calculator, the EIKONA Freight Clearing module offers you automated clearing billing and centralised control of your tariffs. This allows you to map complex freight structures and provides you with various tariff options depending on products, routes, weight classes and other relevant factors such as tolls and diesel. You can manage your tariffs on a partner, customer and client-specific basis by assigning individual rules to them. The software calculates your consignment charges either directly in EIKONA Freight Clearing or via a REST interface from your transport management system. Freight cost management enables you to manage and optimise the costs of transporting goods and merchandise.

Freight clearing for billing and clarification of freight costs

Freight clearing refers to the process of settling and clarifying freight costs between different parties involved in transport and logistics activities. It is a financial transaction method that ensures that the costs of transporting goods between forwarders, carriers, transport companies and other parties involved are handled clearly and transparently. EIKONA Freight Clearing provides you with the basis for financial settlement between different partners through backbilling, clearing and netting. The comprehensive change management in the area of invoicing enables corrections to be made to items to be invoiced. This allows problems to be resolved quickly and at the same time ensures transparency between the clearing parties and trust in the billing process.

EIKONA Freight Clearing
For a flexible and competitive logistics infrastructure

Seamless collaboration despite complex links between partners.

Tariff structure

The evaluation often begins with an analysis of the rate structure, which defines the set prices for various freight services and conditions.

Transportation costs

The costs for the actual transportation of the freight, including charges for distances, zones, weight, volume and other variable factors, are assessed. Broken transports consisting of several transportation steps are also taken into account.

Bilateral contractual conditions

The assessment takes into account the individual and bilateral agreements of customers and partners to ensure that all agreed services and conditions are met.

Additional costs and surcharges

In addition to the basic rates, additional costs and surcharges are also taken into account, such as tolls, fuel surcharges, CO2 compensation payments and other order-related fees.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Who is involved in the clearing process?

Participants in the clearing process are automatically all partners involved in the handling of the shipment. Additional participants can be defined as needed depending on the business process (Gateways/HUBs, network centers, external service providers, carriers, senders/orderers) and their services are then taken into account in the clearing settlement. A central clearing house also plays a role. The settlement can be carried out via a central clearing house (clearing recipient/donor). Of course, this can also be an external service provider who takes over the complete payment processing.

Which security measures are implemented in EIKONA Freight Clearing?

Implemented security measures ensure the safe exchange of sensitive data, including encrypted communication and access controls.

Is EIKONA Freight Clearing only relevant for large logistics companies?

No, EIKONA Freight Clearing is relevant for companies of all sizes as it helps to optimize logistics processes, control costs, and improve collaboration with partners.
