B2B Procurement - 1 • Obtain product information • requisitioner obtains information about products that are available from Intranet-accessible electronic catalog. • catalog is maintained by suppliers and corporate purchasing department. • Create the order • requisitioner creates order by completing a web-based form. • requisitioner must know how to fill out form correctly, including the entry of information, such as product codes, cost centre codes and supplier codes. Electronic automation of traditional business practices
B2B Procurement - 2 • Obtain approval • requisitioner seeks approval from the relevant authorizer(s). • form is routed to the correct individual or individuals using workflow features of software. • Create/transmit purchase order • purchase order is generated and submitted to the supplier for fulfillment. • transmission uses EDI, XML or proprietary data format • Fulfill the purchase order • supplier checks that the product is currently in stock and that the quoted price is valid. • supplier fulfills the customer order by removing it from inventory. • supplier transmits order confirmation to requisitioner.
B2B Procurement - 3 • Ship the product • supplier relies on address on purchase order for delivery of goods. • requisitioner can access supplier web site to track the status of the purchase order. • Receive the product • product is delivered to and processed by the receiving department of the customer. • receiving department will notify the requisitioner via e-mail • receiving department will deliver product to requisitioner.

Process description derived from: The Procurement Process http://www.microsoft.com/TRAININGANDSERVICES/content/training/ samples/2260/Webfiles/Mod02/02m8.htm
Features of e-Procurement - 1 • Online discovery of product information • requisitioner uses a self-service Web application to place their order. • available products listed in a centrally maintained online catalog with pricing information. • availability can be checked directly with the supplier's system • anticipated delivery time can be provided. • Simplified order creation • requisitioner will be prompted by the application to fill out any required parts of the order form. • Look-ups for codes can be implemented. • Intelligent approval process • The application will automatically submit the order to the correct individual for approval. The requisitioner need not know the identity of this individual. If more than one individual is involved in the approval, the request can be automatically routed between the individuals as approval is gained. • Automatic submission of the order to the suppliers • At the end of the approval chain, the order can be automatically processed to segregate the goods from different manufacturers. The system can automatically combine multiple orders on a daily, weekly, or cost basis before creating a purchase order and submitting it to the supplier. • Automatic fulfillment of the order • The supplier system can automatically process the order. After the information on the order has been validated, warehousing and billing systems can be contacted to fulfill the order. • Efficient, automated shipping process • Orders can be sent to the pre-stored standard location for the purchasing company (if appropriate) through a shipping company (again, if appropriate). Links between the purchasing organization's systems and those of the supplier/shipper allow the requisitioner to track the progress of the order. • Automatic routing, inventory updates, and delivery of goods to the recipient • As goods arrive, they can be entered into a system that tracks goods received. The system can match the goods to the orders submitted and provide information about the recipient of the goods. • Automatic payment for the goods • The system may require the requisitioner to confirm receipt of the goods. The confirmation could be used as a trigger to automatically pay the supplier for those goods.
