Don’t get blamed for wasted savings, supplier blind spots, and inaccurate planning due to insufficient PO data visibility

 

 

Variances in price and quantity between POs and invoices go unnoticed, wasting the effort invested in negotiated prices

Without the data, it’s almost impossible to hold suppliers accountable and manage performance effectively

Manual tracking, maverick buying, and non-compliant purchase processes create operational blockers and increase costs

No clarity on open commitments and budget backlogs result in unreliable financial planning and forecasting

Improve your purchase-to-pay process with the complete visibility into your purchase order lifecycle

po value overview

Understand your purchasing patterns and open commitments

  • Easily manage your purchasing backlog with a holistic overview of your PO values by category, organization, and supplier
  • Keep track of goods and services yet to be invoiced and share future liabilities with Finance to manage cash flow
  • Share open commitments with Supply Chain by value or quantity and supplier location to ensure timely delivery and prevent disruptions
po vs invoice variance

Improve supplier reviews with granular PO status & invoice variance visibility

  • Dig deep into your purchase orders and review the status from various angles, e.g., by PO header or PO line versus value, quantity, or count
  • Share PO statuses with Supply Chain so they can proactively manage inventory, logistics, etc.
  • Identify differences between the PO and its respective invoice and discover the variance impact in price, quantity, and value

Opella leveraged Sievo to reach 87% PO coverage, cutting maverick spend by 43% in one year.
