Why do fuel surcharge variances happen?
They happen when charge formulas, rate confirmation language, or manual billing entries drift from the agreed freight charge.
Fuel surcharge drift deserves its own audit line.
Fuel charges can move fast and get accepted without a second look. RateProof flags fuel surcharge variance when the invoice does not match the signed agreement or support.
