Purchase Order Automation

Streamline your purchase orders
with UniFi

The UniFi platform gives you extensive features for limitless use cases. These features enable you drastically improve your Purchase Order process and replace your Purchase Invoice Approval Software.

Not only can UniFi replace your Purchase Order Software, but it can also replace all other 3rd party software. Reducing your need to manage multiple disparate systems and helping reduce your costs. It’s one platform to replace them all.

UniFi offers a next generation purchase order automation App that streamlines your purchase orders and ensures accuracy.  

With minimal or almost zero data entry, you can create purchase orders in seconds and route it through your customised approval process (whether that is the manager’s approval, the budget holder’s approval, or anyone else). 

UniFi allows you to extract the budget from your accounting system (or other budgeting system, or within UniFi itself) so that available budget for the purchase can be checked at the PO entry or approval stage.  

Once the PO is approved and all the checks are positive, UniFi can automatically generate an email to be sent to the supplier to request to purchase the item. 

Add the account details you have with suppliers to UniFi, and it will automatically be added to your PO to suppliers.  

This way, your purchase orders are fully automated, and you don’t have to manually enter data or process a paper purchase order. 

The Purchase Order App in UniFi’s Purchasing Enterprise Suite seamlessly integrates with online platforms to provide real-time stock availability and pricing information, so you don’t need to leave the UniFi platform.

This saves you time as you no longer need to manually search for information and re-key it.

This capability allows for effortless order placement and verification, complete with automated default coding and delivery tracking.

Advanced Capabilities

UniFi Purchasing Enterprise Suite comes with next-gen Procurement Portal which provides real-time visibility into procurement statuses by interfacing directly with supplier platforms. This capability allows you to track orders, monitor shipments, and anticipate deliveries with unprecedented accuracy.

The suite’s Matching and Control capabilities ensure that every transaction is verified and reconciled automatically, reducing errors and saving valuable time.

 

Post-delivery reviews are seamlessly integrated, allowing you to evaluate supplier performance and product quality, and ensure continuous improvement in your supply chain.

For items that meet the threshold for fixed assets, our Asset Onboarding App collects additional details and calculates depreciation, providing a complete financial picture.

The suite also has a Spend Control and Analytics Centre, which provides deep insights into your procurement patterns. This allows you to easily identify cost-saving opportunities and optimise your purchasing strategies.

 

An intuitive Dashboard, serving as the homepage for this suite, ties everything together. It provides at-a-glance views of key performance indicators, with the ability to drill down into transaction details and generate comprehensive reports.

This central hub empowers you to visualise spending trends, forecast future needs, and make data-driven decisions to enhance your procurement efficiency.

UniFi Bots

UniFi bots are designed to mimic the activities of human users so you can streamline operations, reduce manual tasks, and enhance productivity – all in the background without human input. Bots can imitate and perform routine actions that normally take a chunk of your team’s valuable time.
