Purchase order automation is typically done through business software that allows you to automate the purchase order process and corresponding workflows.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of the automation, purchase requisitions are automatically sent to the appropriate party for approval. After the requisition is approved, it is automatically sent to the vendor. By creating automated purchase orders, you eliminate the need for manual purchase orders, paper systems, and streamline time-consuming purchase order processing.<\/span><\/p>\n

With purchase order software, typically available through an ERP system, you can create electronic purchase orders that vendors can acknowledge and automatically integrate into your accounting software. This removes many of the headaches for your accounts payable department.<\/span><\/p>\n

The benefits of purchase order automation<\/h6>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px”]<\/p>\n

As stated previously, an automated purchase order system adds improved functionality through automation, in turn supplying multiple benefits that your accounting team and stakeholders will enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is particularly true for large-scale enterprise companies that are searching for ways to minimize complexity, remove siloes, and add efficiency to the business through digital transformation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, even smaller companies will see benefits from incorporating automation into their purchase order management strategies. Let’s take a look at those benefits in depth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ 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”]<\/p>\n

Cost Savings<\/h4>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px”]<\/p>\n

When done properly, purchase order automation can dramatically reduce costs associated with paper waste and man-hours spent on tedious manual tasks. Furthermore, with automated processes, you can experience greater productivity and resourcing of staff, better visibility into operations and spending, and ensure compliance in your business processes- all of which decrease your overall financial vulnerability.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, the control a purchase order automation system provides can help you prevent wild spending and maximize your existing budget.<\/span><\/p>\n

Greater Transparency<\/h4>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px”]<\/p>\n

By automating purchase requests, you create a better audit trail for the PO process, making any discrepancies easy to track and resolve. Beyond that, ERP tools incorporate reporting features that provide greater visibility into where money is being spent through the various departments of your organization.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Aside from the added visibility into how your supply chain is working, this enables you to better evaluate your vendor relationships, and make educated budgeting decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n
