LTL Quote vs. Invoice Checker
Compare an LTL quote with its invoice line by line. Enter the charges from each document, match each invoice line to the quote line it corresponds to, and see which differences the lines explain. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.

How the comparison works
- Each invoice line you match to a quote line shows the difference between the two amounts.
- An invoice line with no match is a charge that was not in the quote. A quote line with no match is a charge that is not on the invoice.
- The total difference is the invoice total minus the quote total. If you enter the total printed on a document, that total is used and checked against the sum of its lines.
- A blank amount means unknown. It is never treated as zero.
- Nothing is matched automatically, even when two lines have the same name.
Example (synthetic)
The quote has a base charge of $250.00 and a fuel surcharge of $30.00, for $280.00 in total. The invoice has a base charge of $295.00, the same fuel surcharge and a liftgate charge of $40.00, for $365.00. The difference is $85.00, or 30.36% of the quote: $45.00 on the base charge and $40.00 for a liftgate that was not quoted. Select Load example to see it in the checker.
Limits
This checker compares the numbers you enter. It does not read documents, convert currencies, recalculate fuel surcharges or apply any carrier's tariff. A difference is not proof of an error: check it against your rate agreement, the bill of lading and the carrier's rules tariff. See how to compare an LTL invoice with your quote and the methodology.
Questions
What if the quote and the invoice are in different currencies?
The checker does not convert currencies, so it will not compare them.
How do I enter a discount?
Enter a discount or credit as a negative amount, for example -25.00.
