Estimated annual chargeback exposure

$228,000

About 38 orders / month × $500 = $19,000 per month. Most document-driven chargebacks are preventable when missing or late documents are caught before the order ships. That is exactly what Penalty Prevention watches for.

This is an estimate from the numbers you entered, not a quote. A free scan of your real EDI traffic shows your actual at-risk orders and partners.

What the free scan checks

Missing or late ASNs

Shipments that go out without an 856 — or after the partner's window — are a top OTIF chargeback trigger.

Invoice mismatches

810 invoices that don't reconcile to the PO and shipment get short-paid or charged back.

Unacknowledged orders

POs with no 855 acknowledgement leave you exposed when a partner audits compliance.

SignalEDI's Penalty Prevention watches these document checks across your live EDI traffic and flags at-risk orders before they ship. Flat monthly pricing — no setup fees, no per-document charges.
