Transaction Management: Keep Spending in-line, while Reducing Inefficiencies
The purchase-to-pay process typically entails thousands of requisitioners interacting with hundreds of suppliers, which results in tens of thousands of points of potential failure. Each time this interaction breaks down, time and money is lost. When a requisitioner fails to use a preferred supplier, can't find an item or needs to change an order, or if a supplier incorrectly ships or prices an item, end-user frustration increases, time is wasted, and dollars are misspent.
