FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is procure to pay (P2P)?

Procure to pay is the process that integrates purchasing and accounts payable
systems. It’s part of the wider procurement management process and involves four
key stages: 

 1. Selection of goods and services
 2. Enforcement of compliance and order
 3. Receiving and reconciliation
 4. Invoicing and payment

Digitalizing your procure-to-pay process with procure-to-pay software can
strengthen compliance and control among vendors, contracts, regulations, buyers,
and accounts payable. Procure-to-pay solutions help you automate processes so
you can buy from preferred suppliers at negotiated prices without manual
paperwork. This helps you actively control and improve global spend, reduce
manual errors, streamline catalog maintenance, and speed up approval of new
suppliers.

Is procure to pay the same as accounts payable?

Procure to pay is not the same as accounts payable. Procure to pay is the
end-to-end process that enables procurement and accounts payable teams to buy
and then pay vendors for goods or services. Organizations often use
procure-to-pay software to digitalize and automate key procure-to-pay activities
while guiding buyers to comply with procurement rules. The invoice management
and payment steps of the procure-to-pay process are handled by the accounts
payable team.

What is SAP Ariba Buying and Invoicing?

SAP Ariba Buying and Invoicing is a software-as-a-service solution. It provides
ease of use, compliance, and flexibility throughout the procure-to-pay process.
From small, growing companies to large enterprises, this procure-to-pay software
helps organizations streamline catalog maintenance, simplify commerce, and
efficiently manage workflows for procure to pay. 

 

Intuitive tools provide users with straightforward ways to search for goods and
services. Meanwhile, guided buying functionality, preconfigured approval
workflows, budget checks, and contract management capabilities help ensure
compliant spend.

 

The procure-to-pay solution also enables the creation and validation of invoices
from buyers, suppliers, and third parties. Based on user-defined business rules,
invoices are systematically matched against POs, contracts, and receipts with
invalid invoices sent back to suppliers. After validation, the procure-to-pay
solution begins exception handling and workflow approval, which includes
automatic escalation and delegation to help ensure that invoices are processed
quickly and effectively. After final approval, invoices can be directly linked
to your integrated payment process.
