Purchase to pay

Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) is the end-to-end process that organizations use to procure goods or services and manage payments to suppliers. It typically includes:

• Demande d'achat

  An employee or department identifies a need and creates a purchase request for goods or services.

• Purchase Order (PO) creation

  Once approved, the requisition is converted into a formal purchase order and sent to the supplier.

• Goods/Services receipt

  Upon delivery, the receiving team confirms the receipt and quality of the goods or services.

• Traitement des factures

  The supplier submits an invoice, which is matched against the PO and goods receipt (3-way match).

• Payment execution

  After successful matching and approvals, the payment is processed as per agreed terms.
