The Best B2B Dispute Management Tools of 2025

Whether due to error, financial trouble or the non-delivery of goods or services, disputes are unavoidable in the world of accounts receivable. Traditionally, they are managed through a lengthy, tedious manual process that lacks visibility into the process in real time. As companies scaled and these disputes increased, however, businesses started to turn to dispute automation for a more efficient dispute management process for collections and dispute management.

What Is B2B Dispute Management?

Dispute management is the process of understanding the root cause of a discrepancy or disagreement between a customer and your business and providing a way to resolve it quickly and efficiently so you can keep a good relationship with your customer.

Typically there are two main types of disputes:

  • Earned. These are claims a customer makes according to agreed upon terms. For example, early payment terms, discounts, etc. They are generally quick to resolve.
  • Claimed.  These are claims a customer makes that have not been agreed upon in advance, yet claimed by the customer. These disputes could include billing errors, quality issues, non-delivery of goods, etc. They can be time-consuming to resolve as they need to be researched, often the resolution is not clear, and the business needs to do this while at the same time maintaining good relations with the customer. Sometimes several different team members need to be involved which further complicates the process.

Key Features to Look for in B2B Dispute Management Tools

Regardless of the exact type of B2B dispute management tool a company ultimately selects, it should include specific features.

These include:

  • Automated and customizable workflows. Dispute workflows should be automated to reduce delays and customizable for different types of customers and enable routing to the appropriate stakeholders. It should also include prioritization and escalation of disputes according to predetermined criteria.
  • Data and analytics. It should collect data about disputes over time to deliver insights about customer trends, behavior, and track dispute times. This data should be used to identify trends and reduce time to resolution in the future.
  • Self-Service Portal. Customers should have access to a secure portal where they can view the status of disputes in accounts receivables in real time. In addition, after disputes are settled, customers should have the option of making payments directly through an integrated customer payment portal.
  • Centralized hub of information. Gather information in one place to enable customers to view the status of all current payments, disputes, track customer communication, and add supporting documents.
  • Real-time updates. Customers can view the status of disputes in real-time, in addition to viewing the status of all current payments, tracking customer communication, and adding supporting documents. This facilitates better communication between the customer and A/R teams for faster resolution of disputes while at the same time improving the customer experience.

In addition to these features listed, there is an essential benefit that all B2B disputes management tools should provide for your business, full visibility for employees.
