Procurement and Vendor Operations

Know what's committed—before the invoice arrives

A company routes purchase requests through email and verbal approval, so finance can't tell what's actually been committed until invoices show up unexpectedly. Build the request-to-payment workflow as one connected record.

An invoice shouldn't be the first time finance hears about it

Verbal approval and email requests leave finance with no visibility into committed spend until an invoice lands. A purchase order is a commitment—it should exist and be approved before the money is spent, not reconstructed afterward.

Require approval before a PO is created, and match every invoice back to what was actually ordered and received.

From request to payment
  1. 1. Employee submits a purchase request with what's needed and why
  2. 2. Request is approved based on budget and threshold rules
  3. 3. Approved request becomes a purchase order to a vendor
  4. 4. Goods or services are received and matched against the PO
  5. 5. Invoice is matched to the PO and receipt before payment

FAQ

Common questions about procurement software

Who is this for?

Companies that need purchase requests, approvals, and spend visibility in one system instead of email and verbal sign-off.

Does this replace our accounting system?

No—it manages the request-to-PO workflow and exports matched invoices to your accounting system for payment.

How does this relate to the intake portal?

If requests also need legal or security review before procurement, see procurement intake portal for that cross-department workflow.
