Stop Wasting Time with Inefficient Purchasing Processes

You probably arrived here because your purchase order approval process needs help. Your employees and supervisors will likely spend a lot of time dealing with paperwork, Excel files, emails, phone calls, etc. Perhaps the workflow is inconsistent and time-consuming.

Why Do Purchase Orders Cause Headaches?

  • A purchase order requires a series of tasks to be performed across multiple department silos. Anytime a process crosses departments, you introduce complexity.
  • Without a consistent workflow everyone understands and follows, requesters and approvers tend to follow their processes (usually what's easy or in their best interests).
  • The risks of slow turnaround on approved purchase orders can be significant, causing issues with cash flows, work delays, and lost revenue.
  • Incorrectly approved orders can lead to disciplinary action and waste.

The Solution is Automationautomate purchase approvals

To streamline your purchase order workflow, you need to take a step back and look at your process from end to end to find the bottlenecks.

  • Does anyone outside of the finance team know how the process works and how to start it properly?
  • Is the right data (contact information, goods and services, payment terms, etc.) being captured at the point of request?
  • Who is involved in purchase orders? Who are all the stakeholders?
  • Is critical data housed in different systems? Which systems?
  • Who are the approvers? Is it a single approver or a multitiered/complex approval matrix?
  • Are there exceptions and how will they be handled? For instance, do certain dollar amounts require additional approval steps?

Once you have your process documented, it's time to move into the automation development process.
