Bills enter a funnel of 5 rings around the PURCHASE ORDERS stamp: Read (Read, classified and extracted, however it arrived: email, upload, photo or folder.), Identify (Is this a real, verified supplier? Is it the one we think it is?), Match (Does it match the order, the delivery and the agreed price?), Check (Have we seen it before? Is the VAT rate right? Do the lines and dates add up?), Approve (Approved by the right person, under the rule on the screen.). A bill that fails is held on its ring with a named reason and one fix. Only bills that pass every ring drop into your books: approved, coded, evidenced. This page lights 03 Match.

How it looks

Draft, sent, received. Always in view.

Every purchase order carries its lines, value, site and delivery estimate, and moves from draft to sent to received without anyone retyping it.

How it works

Purchase orders that write themselves.

Approved requests flow straight into numbered POs, dispatched to suppliers, tracked through delivery and matched against invoices. Zero rekeying, total control.

Auto-generated from approvals

The moment a request is approved, a numbered purchase order is created automatically, with line items, costs and supplier details carried forward. No rekeying required.

One-click supplier dispatch

Send purchase orders directly to suppliers by email, formatted, branded and ready to action. No printing, scanning or chasing required.

3-way matching

Automatically match purchase orders against goods received notes and supplier invoices, flagging differences in price, quantity or delivery before payment is made.

Delivery and fulfilment tracking

Track order status from issued through to delivered. Site teams confirm receipt against the PO, creating a goods received note that feeds straight into matching.

Committed spend visibility

See exactly what’s been ordered, what’s been received and what’s still outstanding, giving finance a real-time view of committed spend across every site and category.

Full procurement audit trail

Every purchase order links back to its original request and approval chain, giving you a complete, verifiable record from need to payment for every pound spent.
