Improving End-to-End Procure (or Source)-to-Pay Process

Procure-to-Pay or Source-to-Pay is a core process for all businesses. Even while ordering a pizza online, you would evaluate vendors (makers) to match their quote and qualities with your expectations; place the order and validate the delivery on receipt. It’s crucial to view the entire procure/source-to-pay process as a whole to understand the moving wheels or transactions within the process. Without end-to-end visibility, control, and accountability – the sourcing wouldn’t be smooth, in turn necessitating higher time and resource usage with repeated tasks and delaying supply chain or credit processes. We don’t want that, do we? That’s why Crave’s the way for End-to-End Procure to Pay (P2P). process optimization. That’s where all wheels move well-oiled and you can control/track anything, anytime, anywhere.

Standard but unoptimized P2P process

• Delays with each escalation/approval take more time and resources.
• Prone to errors resulting in delays in validation/rejection of PR.
• Longer invoice clearance time and credit cycle for vendors.
• Possible delays in sourcing leading to production or operational delays.
