Using the carrier online billing tools

Each carrier provides online tools to you that help you understand costs. The steps to verify each shipment are varied. The best course of action is to search for the tracking number where a refund was secured. Customer service team and support resources provided by the carrier are the best tools for getting help with navigating your shipping account.

Using a carrier invoice

• The debits showcased on your shipping invoice are the costs related to shipments billed to your account.
• The credits are refunds and credits that were applied to your account.
• Each carrier details the refunds and credits posted to an invoice with the same tracking number to post both credits and debits.
• The invoice where a credit was applied may be different than the invoice were a debit was applied, both related to the same tracking number.
• The Dispute activity table on Share A Refund details where the refund or credit was secured. In the case of different invoices for credits and debits, Share A Refund will post the invoice number where a credit was secured, and apply screenshots taken from within your dashboard to assist in verifying the refunds.
