Requisition & Order Management Your organization’s procurement requires ordering from suppliers be a fast and painless process while main-taining control from order to fulfillment. The simplicity is with configurable rules that allow you to set specific vendors as the go-to source for orders, electronically route approvals to appropriate managers and minimize off-contract spending. Make the most of your negotiated contracts and capture time-sensitive discounts by taking control of the buying process with Jetstream eProcurement.

How it Works Our proprietary technology integrates easily with existing ERP software and legacy systems for speedy implementations. Apptricity e-Procurement runs on any OS or web browser and simplifies the process:

PURCHASE WITH CONFIDENCEUse our fast and easy online ordering with autopopulat-ed screens. Choose from pre-approved vendors and con-tain maverick spending through pre-set spending limits. REQUEST Electronic requisition requests allow companies to take advantage of discounts, reduce maverick spending, eliminate human error and apply pre-set spending limits on all items. APPROVE AND FLIP Automatic workflow provides quicker response from approvers and turns the approved requisition into a purchase order via Apptricity’s PO flip. APPLY BUSINESS RULES Predefined business rules are applied, enforcing com-pliance with corporate policies. Invoices are matched against PO’s and other documents to prevent duplicates. ROUTE FOR APPROVAL Configurable, built-in workflow routes invoices to man-agers for approval and re-routes denials. Escalation is triggered according to your pre-set time lines. PURCHASE AND TRACK Approved payments are forwarded to your AP system. Notifications of payment are submitted to suppliers, cap-turing early payment discounts and reducing disputes. PERFORM AUDIT Exception and rules-based audits can be performed pre or post-processing, providing real-time visibility and a permanent transaction history. PROCESS PAYMENT Approved payments are forwarded to your AP system. Notifications of payment are submitted to suppliers, cap-turing early payment discounts and reducing disputes.

FOUR TENETS OF APPTRICITY SOLUTION DEVELOPMENT HIGHLY ADAPTABLE Apptricity applications are highly adaptable. They can run on any OS, RDBMS, web server or application server technology platform. Apptricity supports a N-tier configuration. U HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE Apptricity provides a business rules engine for unrestricted configuration. Solutions adapt to business logic, rules, established best practices and compliance. SUPERIOR INTEGRATION The Apptricity integration engine provides the ability to integrate into any third party data source, dynamically or batch (EDI, XML, ORM). Apptricity also provides pre-built integration connectors for Oracle, SAP, PeopleSoft, Epicor, JD Edwards, GEAC, Great Plains and many others. MINIMAL-COST MIGRATION You configure the solution to meet your needs once. Our solutions’ migration capabilities eliminate future costs associated with upgrading to new versions. Why repeatedly pay for professional services every time ERP vendors send you a new version of software? With Apptricity, you configure once and migrate forever.
