Procure-to-pay automation & software

Purchase orders, approvals, and invoices live in three different inboxes, and nobody can say what's actually been committed until the invoice shows up. We build the system that tracks it end to end.

What is procure to pay (P2P)?

Procure to pay (P2P) is the process from requesting a purchase through to paying the resulting invoice. Codiot builds and integrates the software that connects purchase requests, approvals, receiving, and invoicing, so spend is tracked from commitment to payment.
The moment you're probably in

You'll recognize one of these.

The invisible commitment

A purchase order gets approved by email, and finance has no visibility into it until the invoice arrives weeks later.

The three-way-match headache

Matching purchase order, receipt, and invoice happens manually, and mismatches take days to chase down.

The maverick spend

Purchases happen outside the approved process entirely, because the approved process is too slow to bother with.

FAQ

Common questions, answered plainly.

What does P2P stand for?
In this context, P2P stands for procure to pay, the process from requesting a purchase through to paying the resulting invoice.
How much does P2P automation cost?
It depends on approval complexity and the number of systems involved. We quote a fixed scope after a discovery call.
Can you integrate with our existing AP system?
Yes, most engagements connect to an existing ERP or accounts payable system rather than replacing it.
How does this reduce maverick spend?
Making the approved process faster than the workaround is what actually reduces maverick spend; that's the design goal of the workflow automation.
How long does implementation take?
A focused first release typically ships in 8-12 weeks, covering your highest-volume purchase category first.
