Procurement & Tendering: from requisition to goods receipt, from RFQ to award, in one flow

Open a purchase requisition, route it through automatic approval based on its amount band, convert it into an order, receive the goods, and three-way match the invoice against the order and the goods receipt. Open a tender/RFQ to external suppliers, collect their bids, compare them side by side, score them by weighted criteria and make the award. Your ERP keeps holding the order and the invoice; the portal writes the approved outcome back to it.

ERP gap

Your ERP records the order — but not the tender, and not the amount-banded internal approval

Your ERP (Logo/Mikro/SAP/Netsis) records the order and the invoice, but it leaves out three critical links: (1) the multi-step internal approval that routes a request based on its amount band, (2) the three-way match between order, goods receipt and invoice, plus the resolution of any discrepancies, and (3) a competitive tender/RFQ object opened to external suppliers — collecting bids, comparing them side by side, applying weighted scoring and reaching a decision. Building these inside the ERP is either impossible or tied to an expensive upper-tier package like SAP MM and heavy customisation. Most companies end up running the tender in Excel and the approval over email. The Intranet Portal delivers this flow out of the box, and writes the tender decision and the approved order back to the ERP as the single source of truth.

Key Capabilities

Requisition → Order → Goods Receipt flow

A department opens a purchase requisition (as a draft), enters the line items and submits it for approval. Once approved, the requisition converts into an order with a single click; the order is dispatched and closed off against a goods receipt (full or partial delivery). Every document runs through its own state machine: requisition draft → in approval → approved → converted to order, and order approved → sent → partially/fully received → invoiced → closed.

Multi-step internal approval by amount band

Requisitions and orders enter the approval engine based on their estimated/total value. Orders below a defined threshold (e.g. TRY 100,000) are approved directly, while those above it drop into a hierarchical approval chain. Approval steps are selected dynamically according to the document value, and every decision is written to the audit trail.

Three-way invoice matching

Incoming invoice lines are automatically matched against the order line and the goods receipt quantity. The system classifies each line: matched, quantity discrepancy, price discrepancy, no goods receipt, over-invoicing, or unmatched item. Quantity differences and percentage price variances are calculated, catching errors before payment.

Exception resolution queue

Every unmatched line is raised as an exception: open, accepted or rejected. An authorised user makes the decision along with a note; who resolved it and when is recorded. An invoice cannot proceed to payment until its discrepancies are cleared.

E-invoice inbox

Supplier e-invoices land in the inbox with their UUID, GİB status and full XML/JSON payload (new). An authorised user imports the invoice (imported) or ignores it. An imported e-invoice is linked directly to the system invoice and enters three-way matching, eliminating manual data entry.

Tender / RFQ to external suppliers

A procurement specialist opens a tender (tender number, line items, estimated budget, start–end date, currency, visibility, documents). Invitations are sent to selected suppliers; once the tender is published, it opens for bid collection. Both public and invitation-only tenders can be configured.

Bid collection and Q&A

Invited suppliers log into the portal and submit their bid: cover letter, delivery lead time, validity, payment terms, line-level pricing and supporting files. Suppliers can raise clarification questions on the tender specification, which procurement answers. A bid remains editable until it is submitted.

Side-by-side comparison and weighted scoring

Incoming bids are gathered on a side-by-side comparison screen. Evaluators score each bid 0–100 per criterion; the decision screen calculates each bid's average score and ranks the bids first by score (highest to lowest) and, in a tie, by price (lowest to highest). Your decision emerges from a single table.

Tender award and decision note

The winning bid is selected; the tender status becomes 'awarded', and the winning bid, the decision note, the person who made the decision and the date are recorded. A notification is sent to the winning supplier. The decision is auditable, and the approved outcome can be carried over to the order/ERP.

How It Works

01

1. Requisition

A department opens a purchase requisition (priority, need-by date, justification, line items). The estimated total is calculated automatically from the line items. The requisition is submitted for approval.

02

2. Approval

The requisition enters the approval engine based on its amount band, and the hierarchical chain runs. Once approved, the requisition becomes ready to convert into an order.

03

3. Order / Tender

The requisition converts into an order for the supplier — or, where competition is required, a tender/RFQ is opened: invitation, bid collection, side-by-side comparison, weighted scoring and selection of the winner. The order too runs through its own approval based on its value.

04

4. Goods Receipt

The goods are received; a full or partial receipt is entered, and the delivery note number and the receiving person are recorded. The order moves to a 'partially/fully received' status.

05

5. Three-way matching & write-back to the ERP

The incoming e-invoice is matched against the order and the goods receipt, and discrepancies are resolved. The cleared, approved outcome (order, invoice match, tender decision) is written to the ERP as the single source of truth.

How It Connects to Your ERP

The ERP remains the single source of truth: the supplier account, stock, accounting and the final invoice record are held in the ERP. The portal runs the internal procurement flow (requisition, approval, tendering, goods receipt, three-way matching) on top; it reads from the ERP and writes back only the approved, cleared outcome.

E-invoice / GİB integration

Supplier e-invoices are pulled into the inbox with their UUID and GİB status, the full XML/JSON payload is stored, and an imported invoice is linked to the ERP invoice record so it can enter three-way matching.

Contract mirror (read-only)

Contracts held in the ERP (e.g. Oracle) are synchronised into the portal read-only (contracts:sync). The portal never writes to a contract; the procurement team uses the current contract data as a reference during approvals and price checks.

Writing the approved outcome back to the ERP

An order that has passed internal approval, a resolved invoice match and a tender decision are transferred to the ERP, eliminating duplicate records and the 'which one is correct' chaos.

Reading master data

Master data such as the supplier account, stock item and currency/exchange rate is fed from the ERP; the portal uses this data across requisition, order and bid line items.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both flows exist. For a routine purchase from a known supplier, the requisition converts directly into an order. For purchases that require competition, you open a tender/RFQ: you send invitations to suppliers, collect bids, compare them side by side, apply weighted scoring and select the winner. You then carry the decision over to the ERP as an order.
It matches incoming invoice lines against the order line and the goods receipt quantity, line by line. It classifies each line: matched, quantity discrepancy, price discrepancy, no goods receipt, over-invoicing, or unmatched item. It calculates quantity differences and percentage price variances, and an invoice cannot proceed to payment until the discrepancies are resolved.
Yes. Requisitions and orders enter the approval engine based on the document value. Small orders below a defined threshold can be approved directly, while those above it drop into a hierarchical chain. The threshold and the chain are defined to fit your organisation.
Invited suppliers log into the portal and submit their bid: line pricing, delivery lead time, validity, payment terms and supporting files. They can raise clarification questions on the specification, which procurement answers. A bid remains editable until it is submitted, after which it is locked.
Yes. Evaluators score each bid 0–100 per criterion; the system calculates the average score and ranks the bids first by score and, in a tie, by price. The winning bid, the decision note, the person who made the decision and the date are recorded, and the entire process is written to the audit trail.
