Improving Fuel Supply Chain Data Accuracy

90% Faster BOL Data Processing Through RightAngle Automation

Operational Challenge

For fuel retailers handling high transaction volumes, missing Bill of Lading (BOL) records can disrupt downstream processing, particularly when each record requires manual verification and updates. A leading U.S. fuel retailer transmitted approximately 1,000 BOL records to its downstream system daily. During a five-day period, more than 350 records were reported missing each day.

 

Resolving these gaps involved retrieving prices from RightAngle, updating transaction details, and checking for previously transmitted records. Preparing just 100–150 records could take 3–4 hours. As missing records accumulated, the manual process placed increasing demands on support teams and introduced the risk of pricing errors and duplicate submissions. Value Creed identified an opportunity to automate these activities while retaining the necessary validation controls.

A Strategic Approach to Project Success

With its RightAngle expertise and AI-assisted development, Value Creed was able to automate BOL processing and reduce manual intervention. The application retrieves pricing information, validates transactions, identifies duplicates, and creates consolidated files for downstream processing. Missing records are processed faster and in a more uniform manner.

Managed Services

Accurate Transaction Data Preparation

Automated retrieval and matching of BOL and pricing data decreases the manual effort in preparing records for downstream processing.

Better Data Consistency

Standardised business rules ensure transaction records are structured correctly and contain the correct supplier and pricing information.

Duplicate Record Identification

Each record is automatically checked against the PDI Archive before output. Previously submitted records are identified and excluded, helping reduce repetitive processing and duplicate submissions.

Reduced Manual Effort in Exception Processing

Automates BOL retrieval, price matching, and transaction validation, reducing the manual effort required to prepare recovery files for missing transactions.

Scalable Support Operations

Automation of repetitive preparation and validation activities can enable support teams to handle larger exception volumes without additional manual effort.

Expertise on Demand

Automated BOL File Preparation

Developed an application to retrieve missing BOL records for selected dates and compare the respective transaction prices from RightAngle, reducing manual lookup and update effort.

Business Rule Automation

We put business rules in place around price matching, supplier updates, file formatting, and duplicate detection to ensure a consistent process for preparing transaction records.

Downstream Validation Controls

Added automated checks against the PDI Archive folder to determine if a record has already been submitted, so that we would not send duplicate records and only include records eligible to be included in the output that was generated. The app pulls all of this together in one workflow so that support teams can spend their time reviewing exceptions, not manually preparing each transaction.
