Enhanced Approbation Process: After its initial approbation, a significant change on the document will require a new approval from the different persons involved in the process. In addition, b-pack extended the list of business titles managed by the application, facilitating the approval process at different strategic levels (Department Manager, VP, Contract Manager, Budget Manager, Spend Category Manager..).
Manage Master Contract: This new capability is similar to the existing master budget functionality, as a master contract allows businesses to group different types of contract related to the same items ( Purchasing contracts, maintenance contract...).
B2B automation: This new feature supports sending Purchase Order in an electronic format using normalized definition of purchase order content (CXML...) which facilitates the data integration to other systems.
Single Sign On (SSO): Our SSO feature allows our customers to connect to our applications with a unique username/password combination by supporting OpenID’s standard, simplifying the registration and login process.
Multiple price for one catalog item: This new feature enables companies to set up price validity per period in order to manage future change of price in advance.
