Abstract

A control system includes one or more processors that obtain event data associated with a vehicle. The processors also receive a statement including a designated chargeable usage of the vehicle, and access one or more rules dictating rule-based chargeable usage of the vehicle. The processors may compare the event data with the one or more rules to determine the rule-based chargeable usage of the vehicle based on the event data and to compare the rule-based chargeable usage with the designated chargeable usage to identify one or more discrepancies between the rule-based chargeable usage and the designated chargeable usage. Further, the processors may, responsive to identifying the one or more discrepancies, generate a reconciliation request for correcting the one or more discrepancies and communicate the reconciliation request to the entity that issued the statement.
