PO Request Workflow

End-to-End. Automated

An employee submits a request through a smart form, the manager approves via automatic routing, sourcing triggers supplier comparison, the PO generates itself, and delivery tracks end-to-end — all with zero manual steps from request to receipt.

The use case

Intake to PO in hours. Without IT involvement.

Employee needs something. Sends Slack to the procurement channel. Lost in the queue. Eventually creates a manual PO. Off-contract. Off-policy. Off-budget.

Pre-built workflow template: employee request → guided buying (catalog match, then RFQ if off-catalog) → multi-level approval → PO generation → supplier dispatch. Conversational intake. Catalog-first. Policy-aware routing.

For who

Procurement Operations
Intake is a Slack channel. Off-catalog spend 60% of total.
Buyer / Requester
Submitted request 2 weeks ago. Still waiting.
Approver / Manager
Approving requests with no context. Late, uninformed.
CFO
Budget burn invisible until end-of-month.
