your buying professionals insight into exceptions, status, and actions required. You can
streamline routine tasks, such as creating purchase orders from approved requisitions
without intervention, increasing productivity while enforcing compliance at every step.
You can utilize electronic communications with your suppliers to improve the timeliness
and accuracy of purchase orders and changes. This allows you to spend more time
discovering and exploiting savings opportunities and delivering value to your business.
Enforce Business Policies
You can ensure compliance with negotiated terms and approval policies. Purchase
orders automatically enforce pricing and terms from supplier agreements. You can also
leverage purchase order and agreement approval rules to ensure compliance and
simplify exception management. The drive to deliver savings with fewer resources and
improve operating efficiencies has led to increasingly complex global operating models.
