Use case · Procurement

Your entire purchase-to-pay process. One question away.

Order status, overdue deliveries, blocked invoices: the questions that eat your procurement team's day get answered in seconds - in Teams, in Outlook, even across whole SharePoint folders. Governed, read-only first, through each user's own SAP rights.

The grind today

Procurement runs on questions nobody has time to answer.

A requester wants to know where their order is. A buyer chases an overdue delivery. Accounts payable needs to know why an invoice is blocked. Today each of these means an SAP transaction someone has to know, an export someone has to build, or a ticket someone has to wait for. The answers exist - they're just locked behind expertise.

A real exchange

  • 3 purchase orders currently open with ACME
  • 2 line items overdue - 6 and 11 days past confirmed date

  • Suggested next step prepared - the decision stays with you
  • Every access logged, under your own SAP authorizations

Three surfaces, one process

Procurement happens everywhere. So does Bridge.

In Teams

The daily flow: a requester checks their order, a buyer pulls everything open with a supplier, AP asks why an invoice is blocked - and gets the reason, not a code.

"Which ACME orders are still open?"

In Outlook

A supplier's invoice lands as a PDF: check it against the order without leaving the mail. An order number mentioned mid-thread? Pull it up - supplier, status, deliveries and all.

"Does this invoice match PO 4500001842?"

In SharePoint

Month-end, a folder full of supplier invoices: Bridge works through all of them - checked against orders, deviations flagged, results filed right back into the folder.

"Check every invoice in this folder against its PO."
