Benefits of the Purchase Order Manager

Streamlined Access

A fully enhanced Coretime Purchase Order Manager has been rewritten based on customer feedback and integrated more tightly into the core product. This powerful purchase order software and procurement software extension allows you to manage purchase requisitions, approvals, and POs directly within Coretime, ensuring seamless tracking of professional services purchasing and improved PO management for better cost control across your projects.

Enhanced Control & Discipline

Gain increased control over project expenditures with built-in discipline features. Set maximum spend limits to prevent unauthorised purchases, and keep your budget on track. The module enforces approval workflows, ensuring that every expenditure is accounted for and aligned with your project’s financial goals.

Real-Time Cost Tracking

Stay ahead of your project costs with Coretime’s Purchase Order Manager and purchase order software, displaying committed expenses even before supplier invoices are received. This procurement software provides real-time visibility into your professional services purchasing and financial commitments, allowing you to manage your PO management and project budget proactively rather than reactively.

Seamless Integration with Coretime

The module seamlessly integrates with your existing Coretime Work In Progress (WIP) screen, making it easier than ever to track and manage project costs with purchase order software and procurement software. Instantly view PO management and professional services purchasing details directly within your WIP screen for streamlined billing, reporting, and financial management.

Elimination of Redundant Data Entry

Say goodbye to duplicate entries and errors. With the Purchase Order Manager, data only needs to be entered once, and it automatically flows through the system. This ensures consistency across your financial records, reducing the risk of discrepancies and saving you valuable time.

What does Coretime Purchase Order Management actually do?

Simplified Requisition Process

Raise a Purchase Requisition directly through the Coretime interface, streamlining the initial step of the procurement process. Once submitted, an automated email notification is sent to the designated Approver, ensuring a swift and efficient approval workflow. This feature eliminates delays and keeps your procurement process moving smoothly.

Instant Purchase Order Creation

Once the Project Manager or Finance team approves the requisition, a PDF Purchase Order is instantly generated and ready to send to suppliers. This seamless process not only saves time but also reduces the risk of errors, ensuring that your purchase orders are accurate and ready for prompt action.

Effortless Goods/Services Receipt Recording

After the Goods or Services are received, the Requestor can easily log the receipt within the system. This feature ensures that every item or service delivered is tracked, providing an up-to-date status on all procurement activities and paving the way for accurate financial reconciliation.

Accurate Invoice Matching

Finance teams can match the Purchase Invoice to the corresponding Purchase Order with ease, making any necessary adjustments. This feature supports accurate financial management by ensuring that invoices align with what was ordered and received, reducing discrepancies and maintaining budget integrity.

Seamless Integration with Accounts System

Once everything is in order, Finance can quickly check the details and post the matched transaction directly to your Accounts system. This seamless integration minimizes manual data entry, reduces the chance of errors, and ensures that your financial records are always up to date, facilitating smooth and efficient accounting operations.

Is it expensive?

No – a simple site licence and a bit of our time to get you up and running is all that is required

Aircraft Leasing & Management

We have recently purchased Coretime through Onesys and were impressed with their responsiveness to our original enquiry and to our subsequent questions. The process for understanding what the software could do for us was efficient and straightforward, as was the administration involved in setting-up the account and finalising the agreement.

For us, the main benefit is that our system is now more user-friendly in terms of project managers being able to access information, such as seeing how a project is performing against budget. They can analyse how time is being spent and what proportion of it is earning fees – it’s easy to translate.

Since purchasing Coretime our time spent on administrative tasks, especially around invoicing has greatly reduced. We can also now respond to Client queries much more efficiently and with a more accurate, trusted response.

Overall the processes that we undertake using Coretime are much quicker and simpler and along with the benefits we’re now receiving in how we can report on our Project data using different parameters, we expect to see a return on investment within a year based on administration time saved.
