Procure to Pay Process

Eliminate the inconsistencies and inaccuracies of manual procure to pay processes with Cflow. Our flexible procure to pay platform gives you complete control and context of every penny that your organization spends.

Purchase Requisition

Purchase requisitions are submitted by employees of various departments and are routed to the manager or department head for review and approval.

Quotation Management (RFQ)

Purchase requests are collated and floated as a single request for quote (RFQ) and shared with prospective vendors.

PO Processing

Processing of purchase orders is an alternate process to the RFQ process. In this process, a pre-qualified vendor is identified based on previously approved rate agreements.

Goods Receipt

Issuance of goods received notes can be done automatically with Cflow. Once the goods received from the supplier are inspected for quality, the goods received note is automatically issued so that subsequent invoice requests can be placed.

Accounts Payable

Accounts payable is concerned with payment of vendor invoices. 3-way matching is an important step in accounts payable that is concerned with matching data on invoices, purchase orders, and goods received note.

Invoice Payment

Once the vendor delivers the goods, the goods received note is created by the buyer. Details on the quantity and quality of goods that are delivered is entered into the goods received note.

Issue Requests and Returns

Once goods are inspected the request for payment or return of goods can be automated by Cflow. A payment invoice is raised when PO terms and conditions and quality standards are. When goods do not meet expected quality, then a return request is issued.

Inventory Management

Plan logistics and optimize inventory of the procurement process with Cflow. Distributors can add, edit, delete and transfer inventory in real-time with automated inventory systems. Automated inventory management also syncs order and inventory data in real-time.

Vendor Additon

Vendors are vetted and added to the vendor database based on various selection criteria. The request for quotation submitted by various vendors is reviewed and compared by the procurement team.
