Executive Summary

Finance and procurement leaders today face immense challenges in managing complex purchase workflows, ensuring compliance, and controlling budgets. Manual purchase requisition processes create inefficiencies, errors, and lack real-time visibility into spend. Purchase requisition software streamlines the creation, approval, and management of purchase requests, transforming procurement into a digital, automated process. In this guide, we delve into the definition, key benefits, essential features, and ROI of purchase requisition software, highlighting how Hyperbots' AI-driven Procurement Copilot stands apart in delivering transformative results.

Understanding Purchase Requisition Software

What is Purchase Requisition Software?

A purchase requisition software automates the process by which employees can request goods or services. Traditionally, this involved paper forms or scattered emails, but modern solutions digitize the workflow, centralizing and automating tasks from request submission to managerial approval and ERP synchronization.

Requisition vs Purchase Order:

A common confusion in procurement involves differentiating between a requisition and a purchase order (PO). A requisition is an internal request to procure goods or services, whereas a PO is a formal document sent to a vendor to purchase them. Purchase requisition software focuses on streamlining internal approvals and preparing data for seamless PO generation.
