In today\u2019s competitive landscape, businesses of all shapes and sizes must find ways to increase efficiency and productivity, while cutting costs wherever possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the best places to start is with <\/span>business process automation (BPA)<\/span><\/a>. With BPA, you can streamline repetitive and time-consuming tasks, ease the burden for your team members, and improve your workflows by adding efficiency and boosting accuracy.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are a number of tasks and business units that can benefit from BPA. One of the most common adopters is Accounts Payable departments who can use BPA to automate payroll, invoicing, and purchase order processing.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this post, we\u2019re going to hone in on <\/span>purchase order automation<\/span><\/a>– how it works, why automation is a great fit for this area, and compare two of our favorite PO process automation software: Microsoft SharePoint and OpenText.<\/span><\/p>\n

To begin, let\u2019s discuss what purchase order automation is and how it works.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ header_6_text_color=”#202657″ header_6_font_size=”23px” custom_margin=”0px||5px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”]

What is Purchase Order Automation?<\/h6>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px”]

Automated purchase order solutions employ business software equipped with robotic process automation (RPA) technology, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) to automate the purchase order process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With automation, purchase requisitions can be created in a few clicks from pre-formatted templates, and routing functionality can send approvals straight to the supply chain vendor once the approval workflow is complete.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This removes the need for manual intervention, paper filing systems, and makes the process faster and more manageable.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ header_4_text_color=”#202657″ header_4_font_size=”20px” header_6_text_color=”#202657″ header_6_font_size=”23px” custom_margin=”0px||5px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”]

The Purchase Order Process<\/h4>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px”]

While the purchase order process can look slightly different from company to company, the following provides a good example of a typical, manual purchase order system.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 1:<\/b> The first step is purchase order creation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/b> Then another team member will review and approve\/reject the purchase order.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 3: <\/b>Then the purchase order must be routed to the vendor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 4:<\/b> Once filled, the organization will then receive its product or service.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 5:<\/b> Then the company will receive the vendor invoice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 6:<\/b> The invoice will need to be reviewed and authorized, and payment released to the vendor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 7:<\/b> Then the final step of the purchasing process is to file or archive the related documents to provide an audit trail.<\/span><\/p>\n

This may not seem like many steps, but in order for this workflow to run efficiently, all parties from your AP team members, to sales reps, vendors, and supervisors, must all provide accurate, timely responses. Many organizations can testify that this is easier said than done.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are many benefits to automating these steps, which we\u2019ll review in the next section.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=”4.7.7″ custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.4″ header_6_text_color=”#202657″ header_6_font_size=”23px” custom_margin=”0px||5px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”]
