Purchasing, Procurement, and Requisition Management Software

Slingshot’s purchasing modules are called Buy and Request. They work together (or independently) to bring your employees into your purchasing/procurement processes.

• Maximize your discounts by aggregating all possible purchases
• Reduce “maverick” buys by driving all purchases through approved contracts
• Automate tedious and error prone account coding
• Automate purchase approvals and eliminate disruptive status request calls to purchasing
• Derive GL account coding based on employee’s position and products selected.

BUY

For the power user, Buy turbo charges complex processing, bringing speed and efficiency to the fingertips of your purchasing team.

• Automate purchase approvals using powerful and simple workflows
• Speed invoice processing with approval rules (including 2 & 3-way matching) and workflow routings
• Mixed purchase orders are a breeze (expenses, fixed assets, inventory, services)
• Review full purchase history with any supplier at any time
• Enjoy a range of time saving multi order entry tools
• Shop by list, kits and template orders

REQUEST

Provide for employees and external self service customers with one system. Reduce internal costs associated with paper requisitions (remember the paperless office…), tighten financial controls (be as tight as you want!) and drive all requisitions to corporate contracts (everyone wants to save a few sheckles, right?). Your employees can:

• Begin entering requisitions with little or no training
• Lodge requests using familiar shopping cart routines
• Browse catalogs, order from a shopping list or copy an earlier request
• Order by inventoried item, by kit or any number of other requisition methods
• Refer to the total value of their cart at any time
• Receive automated email notifications of the progress of their request as it is processed
• Nominate preferred supplier and shipment method
