Manage Procurement Cards (Purchasing Cards) in SAP R/3.

This is a comprehensive solution to address the issues faced by companies using Procurement Cards (also known as purchasing cards or P-Cards). The system is fully integrated, easy to use and highly compliant. Critically your accounts payable team will have visibility of the entire process.

Many SAP buying organisations have already experimented with Procurement Cards and then suffered problems with integration, automatic reconciliation within SAP, spend reporting, compliance and much more – they have then abandoned pilot projects thinking that purchasing cards couldn’t be beneficial for their organisation.

Procurement cards will address all these issues to produce a highly integrated and automated process to manage the reconciliation and settlement process within SAP R/3. The solution can integrate directly to a number of banks or card providers to automate the receiving of statements and once the integration is in place, the buying organisation can receive statements when required. It can also be used with ghost (lodge) cards as a form of payment for your suppliers.
