Purchasing

From request to paid, in one place

A procure-to-pay app that turns scattered buying into one clean flow: request quotes from suppliers, compare and award them, raise purchase orders against your Inventory, and -- once the goods are received in Inventory -- 3-way-match the vendor bill against the order and the receipt before an authorized admin posts it to your books. Built on the Inventory and Accounting apps you already run -- no second stock ledger, no re-keying bills into your general ledger.

Purchasing is included free on Deelo — no credit card required. One platform with 50+ integrated business apps.

Everything You Need in Purchasing

Powerful features designed to help you work smarter, not harder.

Purchase Requisitions

Anyone on the team can raise a requisition for what they need. It routes to an approver -- who can't rubber-stamp their own -- and, once approved, converts into an RFQ in one click.

Blanket / Contract Agreements

Lock in a negotiated quantity and rate with a supplier over a validity window, then draw call-off purchase orders against it with live released-vs-remaining tracking -- and an over-draw guard so you never release more than you agreed.

Request for Quotation (RFQ)

Send a single request to multiple suppliers, capture their priced quotations, and compare them side by side before you commit.

Award to Purchase Order

Award the quotation you want and raise the purchase order straight into your Inventory app -- one source of truth for what's on order, no duplicate PO system.

Built on Your Inventory Stock Ledger

Awarding a quotation raises the purchase order in your Inventory app, and the goods receipts your team records there flow through the existing stock ledger. Purchasing reads those receipts for the match -- there's no second stock system to reconcile.

3-Way Match

Before a vendor bill is approved, Purchasing reconciles it against the purchase order and the goods received in Inventory -- with a tolerance you control -- so you never overpay for what you didn't order or didn't get.

Opt-in Accounts Payable Posting

When an authorized admin posts an approved, matched bill, its accounts payable posts to the Accounting general ledger as a balanced journal entry -- opt-in per team, idempotent, and period-lock aware. No exporting, no re-keying.

Stock & Non-Stock Lines

Bill for stock items received against a PO or for services and non-stock costs with no receipt -- each line posts to the right account.

Supplier Scorecards

See on-time delivery, price variance, and match-failure rate per supplier, so you know who to keep buying from.

Supplier Scoring & Standings

Roll those metrics into a weighted 0-100 score and a graded standing (Excellent / Good / Fair / Poor) with weights and bands you control -- then optionally warn or block sourcing to suppliers that fall below your bar.

Spend & AP Dashboard

One command center for billed spend, open purchase orders, goods still to receive, bills awaiting posting, and accounts-payable due dates -- so you always know what's on order and what's coming due.

Granular Roles & Permissions

Per-action control over who can send RFQs, award quotations, match bills, override match tolerance, and post to the ledger.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Purchasing.

No -- it builds on them. When you award a supplier quotation, Purchasing raises the purchase order in your Inventory app and receipts flow through the same stock ledger. There is no second stock system to reconcile.
It compares three documents before a vendor bill is approved: the purchase order (what you ordered), the goods receipt (what you got), and the bill (what the supplier charged). Purchasing only lets a bill through when the three agree within a tolerance you set -- so you don't pay for quantities you never ordered or never received.
When an authorized admin posts an approved, matched bill, its accounts payable posts to the Accounting app's general ledger as a balanced journal entry (debit the expense or inventory asset account, credit accounts payable). Posting is opt-in per team, admin-gated, idempotent, and respects your accounting period locks.
Yes. A bill line can be a stock item received against a purchase order (3-way matched) or a direct non-stock/service line with no receipt -- each posts to the appropriate account.
