CODA Standard Procurement - Product overview

Procure to Pay

Our CODA financial management suite offers CODA Procurement* - an end-to-end, completely integrated solution for an organisation’s procure-to-pay process, delivering control, speed, responsiveness and cost savings.

Employees can quickly and easily process electronic requests for capital or expense items. These requests can then be routed automatically for the appropriate approvals and budget checking.

Once the requisition is approved, the actual purchase can be handled in a number of different ways. The employee processing the order can call up electronic catalogues from approved suppliers and order directly from them. There are also online marts and auction sites to which the employee can go, or a simple in-house catalogue can be used.

An authorised order can automatically update commitments.

Once the purchase has been made, the receipt of the goods can be handled electronically, with automated matching of the goods received note, purchase order and invoice.

Key information is accessible and clear, enabling greater control and visibility of the procurement process

This automation of the purchasing process, from requisition to payment, delivers paperless procurement that is fast and secure, yet permits all users to share the information on a real-time basis. Employees can check the status of orders at any time, and managers can readily match expenditures against budgets, and track spend using commitment accounting. In addition, with automated purchasing authorisation via workflow, you can ensure employees don't exceed their level of purchasing authorisation. And the resources freed up can be used to generate further cost savings by devoting more time to selecting suppliers, negotiating prices and evaluating supplier performance.

* N.B. Our standard edition procurement solution has also been known in some parts of the world as CODA 2control Spend.
