Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions?Let's talk

What is purchase order automation, and how does it work?

Purchase order automation is the use of software to replace manual steps across your full procure-to-pay cycle, from requisition and approval through ERP sync and payment. Once a request is raised, the system routes it, validates it, creates the PO, and tracks everything in one place. Bacancy builds this around your workflow, compliance requirements, and existing tech stack.

How long does it take to build a custom PO automation system?

Generally, the typical procurement automation process takes approximately 10 to 14 weeks. However, if there are any advanced capabilities in the system, such as 3-way matching, multi-entity functionality, and an artificial intelligence-based detection system, it may take up to 18 to 24 weeks. Bacancy implements development simultaneously in order not to waste time and to do everything perfectly.

Which ERP systems can Bacancy integrate with?

Bacancy’s team has developed live integrations with SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, QuickBooks, and Xero, along with many others. Each integration is scoped in the discovery stage to guarantee seamless data synchronization, accurate vendor information, and consistent accounting entry. Bacancy has successfully implemented over 35 live ERP integrations for manufacturing, retail, healthcare, and financial institutions without any data mismatch issues.

Can the system handle multi-entity and multi-currency procurement?

Yes. Bacancy develops multi-entity procurement models that accommodate various currency exchange, tax models, and approval chains within multiple legal entities and jurisdictions. If your business is distributed among 3 countries or 45 locations, this model is designed to manage those complexities without using individual procurement software solutions per entity.

What post-launch support does Bacancy offer?

Following launch, our experts take care of everything for 90 days to ensure that everything functions effortlessly. We monitor the system, change processes if needed, solve any integration problems, and assist your team to get used to the new arrangement.

Following that, we will leave everything to you. You may choose to have a dedicated team or managed services, depending on what is best for you. Ultimately, it all depends on your business roadmap and changing procurement requirements.
