    Purchase Order Add-ons
    Here is a partial (alphabetical) list of software add-ons that can be added to the base system. Please call toll-free 1-888-237-8482 for pricing and details.

    Budget Modules - The base system allows you to perform accrual reports and report on budgetary fields placed on your electronic forms. These capabilities can be augmented with a variety of off-the-shelf and custom budget modules. The modules allows you to upload annual, monthly, or quarterly budget data (tied to GL Codes/Departments), project-based budgets and/or place limits on users based on their budget authority. Please call for pricing and details.

    Change Orders - The Purchase Order system includes support for after-approval modifications. Added modules are also available for revision and revision management. Please call for pricing and details.

    Custom Blanket PO System - The base system allows you to set up Blanket POs and mark off received goods. This capability can be augmented with modules that provide approval notification when changes exceed pre-defined thresholds, expirations, and manual sign-off requests. Please call for pricing and details.

    Customized Approval Flow - The base system includes the most comprehensive approval flow engine, complete with easy to use administration. In cases however, where non-compatible company-specific hierarchies are in place, the system can be extended with a custom approval management table to ensure easier administration. Please call for pricing and details.

    Custom POs and Tools - The Purchase Order system is built on top of Aestiva Power Office, a sophisticated workflow engine. As a result, the system can be extended with additional electronic forms. For example, the system can manage check requests, assets, RMAs, leases, and other kinds of special-purpose forms and tools. Please call for pricing and details.

    GSA Module - Splits line items based on direct and indirect procurement expenses. Includes GSA data integration. Please call for pricing and details.

    Inventory - The base product does not include an inventory system. Optional add-ons are available. Select a standard inventory system, an inventory system with asset management, a SKU-less inventory system (that eliminates the need to manage SKUs), or build an inventory system that matches your specific needs. Please call for pricing and details.

    Invoice Approval - Invoice Approval can be done with the base product. If special forms are needed to manage the process, these can be added too. Please call for pricing and details.

    Item Catalog - An advanced vendor and item catalog is included with the base product. The base system include auto-capture of items ordered, a Google-like search, vendor territories, and vendor categorization. However, if you need a custom catalog with image-based navigation for example, corporate-approved product catalogs, and/or support for stock/non-stock item controls, these can be added. Please call for pricing and details.

    Logistics - Track the movement of goods between shipping locations and/or status levels with this very easy-to-use logistics add-on. See it to believe it. Please call for pricing and details.

    Order Entry - The product does not manage the "sell" side of the business process. However, if your PO system needs to be directly linked to a "sell" side, then an order-entry system can be added. Please call for pricing and details.

    Purchase Request Forms - If your process includes the need to consolidate requests containing items from multiple vendors into POs then a separate Purchase Request form may be needed. In these cases tools are provided to consolidate requests into POs. The forms can work with inventory and non-inventory type items. Can include RFX forms, as well. See Aestiva Procurement for pricing and details.

    RFX Forms - Creation of RFI, RFP, and RFQ forms. Please call for pricing and details.

    Split Reporting - Ability to split individual line items into multiple GL codes based on unit price, extended price, and/or percent split or based on previously saved split. Please call for pricing and details.

    T & E - A Travel Request (TR) and Travel Expense (TE) form combo (also called Expense Request and Expense Reimbursement) can be added to the system for managing travel and non-travel related expenses. Please call for pricing and details.

    Template Kits - ability to define sets of purchasing forms and have them auto-submit for approval on a recurring basis. Note: Ability to create template kits is included in base product. This feature allows for added functionality. Please call for pricing and details.

    Vendor Analysis/Spend Management - The base product already includes the ability to perform Vendor History Reports. If you need to issue vendor problem reports and perform vendor analysis based on these reports, additional forms may be added. Please call for pricing and details.

    Vendor Request System - The base product already includes the ability to perform simple Vendor Requests with automated approval. However, if a new form is needed with a custom approval flow to manage the Vendor Request process, a module is available. For more information, please see the product, Aestiva Vendor Request.

    Vendor Punchout - The base product can be fully integrated with vendor web sites. When this happens you no longer need to shop on the vendor site - saving you time and money. Instead, you access the vendor site from within the Aestiva Purchase Order product. For more information, please see the product, Aestiva Punchout.

    Warehouse (WMS) - The base product does not include a warehouse management system. Single and multi-warehouse setups are available. Recieve goods into warehouses, move goods between warehouses, perform monthly reconciliations, generate pick lists, and more. Please call for pricing and details.
