Why integrate procurement software with Sage Intacct?

Integrating procurement software with Sage Intacct automates your entire procure-to-pay (P2P) process, eliminates hours of manual data entry, and provides real-time spend visibility. This connection transforms your procurement function from a reactive cost center into a strategic, data-driven operation by ensuring that purchasing data flows directly into your accounting system without errors.

By syncing these two platforms, you can automate critical accounts payable workflows. Instead of manually keying in transaction codes, a direct integration automatically pushes clean, pre-coded invoice data into Sage Intacct. This not only saves your finance team valuable time but also drastically improves data accuracy, making reconciliations and month-end closing faster and more reliable. Furthermore, this integration provides real-time visibility into budgets and spending, empowering you to control costs before they happen, not just after.

Key features to look for in Sage Intacct-compatible procurement tools

When evaluating purchasing software that works with Sage Intacct, it's essential to look beyond a simple "integration" checkmark. The best solutions offer robust automation capabilities and an intuitive user experience that drives company-wide adoption.

Look for these key features:

• End-to-End Automation: The platform should automate the entire procure-to-pay cycle. This includes guided requisitions, custom approval workflows, automated ordering, and streamlined payment processing. The goal is to touch each transaction as little as possible.
• Centralized Purchasing and Vendor Management: A superior solution will centralize all purchasing across every vendor—online and offline—into a single interface. This eliminates the need for employees to navigate multiple vendor websites and provides a single place to manage vendor relationships and performance.
• Intuitive User Experience: If a system is difficult to use, employees will find ways around it, leading to the very maverick spend you’re trying to eliminate. A user-friendly, marketplace-like experience encourages adoption and ensures all purchasing happens within your controlled environment.
• Scalability: Choose a platform that can grow with your business. It should be able to handle increasing transaction volumes, additional locations, and more complex approval structures without a drop in performance.

Procurement systems that integrate with Sage Intacct

Several procurement platforms offer integrations with Sage Intacct, each with a different approach to solving the purchase-to-pay challenge. Here are a few notable options.

Procurify

Procurify is a spend management platform focused on providing visibility and control over organizational spending. It offers features for creating purchase requisitions, managing approval workflows, and tracking purchases. The platform helps businesses manage both purchase orders and non-PO spending, like expense reimbursements and corporate cards.

Its integration with Sage Intacct to reduce manual data entry for the accounting team.

• Pros: Strong focus on user-friendly requisition and approval workflows. Good visibility into pre-purchase spend requests.
• Cons: Purchasing is not facilitated within the platform, meaning users still need to place orders with vendors manually after approval. This is both time consuming and makes spend control more complicated.

Tipalti

Tipalti is primarily an AP automation and mass payments platform that has expanded to include procurement management features. Its strength lies in automating global payables, invoice processing using OCR technology, and simplifying tax compliance. The procurement side allows for the creation of purchase requisitions and approvals.

The Sage Intacct integration syncs purchase order and invoice data, streamlining the process of creating bills from approved POs and invoices within Tipalti.

• Pros: Robust global payments capabilities and strong AP automation features.
• Cons: Procurement is an add-on to its core payables functionality, and the user experience for purchasing is less comprehensive than dedicated procurement platforms.

Order.co: The superior alternative for Sage Intacct integration

While the tools above offer valuable features, Order.co provides a fundamentally different and more powerful approach to procurement and Sage Intacct integration. Order.co is the only platform that unifies the entire purchasing, payment, and fulfillment lifecycle into a single, AI-powered guided marketplace. This allows businesses to not only track spend but to control and optimize it at its source.

Instead of just syncing data between two systems, Order.co transforms the entire process, delivering a level of automation and control that other solutions cannot match.

A deeper, more efficient integration

The Order.co integration with Sage Intacct is designed to eliminate manual work entirely. Here’s how it’s different: your teams purchase everything they need from any vendor through the Order.co platform. Order.co pays all your vendors directly. At the end of your billing cycle, Order.co sends you a consolidated invoice for everything you bought.

This consolidated invoice is then automatically pushed to Sage Intacct via API as a bill, with every line item already coded to the correct GL code, department, and location. This unique workflow eliminates invoice overload, manual data entry, and the need for tedious reconciliation of hundreds of individual vendor invoices. It's one of the many reasons Order.co is one of the top-rated accounting integrations on the market.

Unify your entire purchasing process

Order.co centralizes every vendor and all products into one curated, easy-to-use marketplace. Instead of juggling dozens of vendor websites, punchouts, and catalogs, your team shops from one place with pre-set budgets and approval rules.

• Control Spend Before It Happens: Prevent rogue spend by ensuring 100% of purchases are made through a controlled, compliant platform.
• No More Punchouts: A unified catalog makes clunky, hard-to-maintain punchout catalogs obsolete. Add products from any supplier into one central catalog.
• Centralized Vendor Management: Onboard and manage all your vendors in one place, with access to Order.co’s network of over 15,000 suppliers.

Eliminate manual AP work with AI and automation

Because every purchase originates and is fulfilled within Order.co, the platform captures clean, structured data from the very beginning. This makes traditional, error-prone AP processes unnecessary.

• Automated, Line-Level Coding: All purchasing data is automatically and accurately coded to the line level as it happens, ensuring perfect data flows into Sage Intacct without any manual intervention from your AP team.
• Consolidated Billing: Reduce hundreds of vendor invoices down to one or a handful of monthly bills from Order.co, cutting your invoice processing time and costs by over 90%.

Proactive cost savings with strategic sourcing AI

Order.co goes beyond process automation to deliver tangible cost savings. The platform’s built-in AI sourcing engine works behind the scenes to optimize every purchase.

• Price Intelligence: Order.co AI scans thousands of vendors in real-time to identify the best price for the products you need, saving businesses an average of 5% on product costs.
• Smart Replacements: When an item is out of stock, the AI proactively suggests the best alternative based on price, availability, and your purchasing history, preventing operational delays.
• Strategic Sourcing: Leverage your company-wide spend data to identify opportunities for vendor consolidation and negotiate better volume discounts.

How to choose the right Sage Intacct procurement software

Choosing the right procurement software is a strategic decision that impacts financial control, operational efficiency, and your bottom line. While many tools can connect to Sage Intacct, the key is to find a solution that addresses the root causes of inefficiency in your procurement process.

Start by evaluating your current pain points. Are you struggling with manual invoice processing? Is rogue spending eating into your budgets? Do you lack the visibility needed for strategic decision-making?

For businesses that want to simply sync data between systems, traditional procurement tools may suffice. But for organizations looking to truly transform their business buying, a unified platform like Order.co offers a more comprehensive solution. By centralizing purchasing, automating the entire P2P process, and delivering AI-powered cost savings, Order.co provides a strategic advantage that goes far beyond a simple integration.
