Module Overview
To properly control your company's spending, staff must ask for permission before spending money, rather than asking for forgiveness after-the-fact.
With SpendMap's Requisitions and Approvals Module, staff members can easily order the products and services that they need while maintaining full control over who buys what.
New Requisitions are sent for online approval based on your business rules (workflow) before anything is ordered. For the ultimate speed and convenience, Approvers are notified by email and can approve or reject requisitions right from the email message itself, or they can log into SpendMap to complete the approval process in seconds, using any computer, tablet or phone.
If you're using paper, Excel or email for your approval process, this fast and easy online system will significantly reduce costs and accelerate your requisition and approval process by days. And if you’re currently waiting for invoices to show up before the approval process starts, you can make the shift to pre-purchase Requisition approval to control spending at the source and gain visibility into your spending much earlier in the procurement process.
For more details, please see Types of Requisitions.
Not just for End-User Requisitioning
