SoftCo Contract Management works seamlessly with the SoftCo Accounts Payable and SoftCo eProcurement solutions to configure installment plans and ensure you only receive accurate invoices from your vendors, as per your agreed contracts. The solution creates forecasted amounts per month for each of your contracts and as an invoice is processed against the contract, it is allocated to its correct month.
SoftCo Contract Management automatically matches your invoices to agreed installment plans, without the need of a supporting purchase order or a goods receipt note. AP staff are no longer required to carry out manual accrual tasks for forecasted invoices.
SoftCo Contract Management allows you to generate your own invoices to be matched against your vendor contracts, before sending payment to your vendor. Where there is an existing agreement in place with an agreed payment cycle, such as a monthly rental payment, the system removes the need for your vendor to send you an invoice in order to be paid. Invoice lifecycles are significantly reduced, payments are made on time and all relevant data is included on invoices.
The solution provides tolerance settings, allowing invoices you receive to be higher or lower than the agreed contract by a certain predetermined amount, and still automatically match. Automatic alerts notify charges that are outside of set tolerances, which can then be queried with vendors.
SoftCo Contract Management provides a secure and centralized repository for storing all agreed vendor contracts. Contracts are accessible instantaneously at any time subject to user permissions.
The solution facilitates the setting of permissions for the information your business users can view on your stored contracts. All contracts are stored as password-protected PDFs, preventing unauthorized access, printing and saving of contracts.
