Questions finance leaders ask

What is procurement software used for?

Procurement software controls how a business buys: requests, approvals, purchase orders and supplier records. In Viacle it shares one record with accounts payable, payments and accounting, so procure-to-pay runs end to end and every purchase stays connected through to the books.

What is the procure-to-pay process?

Procure-to-pay covers every step from a purchase request to the supplier being paid and the payment recorded: request, approval, purchase order, receipt, bill, match, payment and accounting. In Viacle those steps stay on one record, so nothing is re-keyed between them.

How does Viacle keep spending within budget?

Requests are approved against budget before an order is placed, and committed spend on open orders is shown alongside what's already been spent, so a budget can't be quietly overrun.

What happens when a supplier bill doesn't match the order?

The bill is held before any money moves, showing exactly which line is off and by how much. Someone then approves it with a reason, asks the supplier for a corrected bill or credit note, or amends the order.

Every purchase, accounted for from the start.
