Purchase Order Automation

Building POs by hand in Google Docs, emailing them around, and reconciling invoices line by line eats hours a week and still lets overcharges through. Foreko compares live supplier pricing, turns an approved plan into a purchase order in one click, sends it by email or EDI, and flags invoice mismatches before payment goes out.

Capabilities

Everything Purchase Order Automation covers.

Supplier Price Comparison

See every supplier's price before you commit.

Foreko compares live pricing across every supplier on file for a given SKU, factoring in lead time and freight, so the cheapest number isn't always the only number that matters.

Lead time and freight factored into the comparison

Purchase Order Automation

From approved forecast, or a fulfilled order, to purchase order, automatically.

Once a recommendation is approved, or an order ships and eats into stock you need to replenish, Foreko turns it into a purchase order automatically, standard terms applied, routed for approval, and tracked from sent to confirmed.

Approved recommendations become POs without re-entry
Standard terms and templates applied per supplier

Catch a mismatch before it becomes a payment.

Frequently asked questions.

Foreko turns an approved plan directly into a purchase order, compares supplier pricing automatically, and pays suppliers once an order is fulfilled. There's no email thread to lose track of and no spreadsheet of PO numbers to keep current by hand.
