THE CHALLENGE
Your P2P reality is fragmented. Your automation shouldn't be.
Most procure-to-pay automation is designed for the simple version of your business. SoftCo is configured for the real one.
Uncontrolledindirect spend
Your ERP handles core purchasing. But office supplies, services, facilities, day-to-day operational spend? No system. No approval trail. No visibility until it hits the P&L. SoftCo brings compliant procurement to the spend your ERP was never designed to manage.
Invisible contractual obligations
Rent, standing orders, recurring payments. Obligations with no invoice, no PO, and no transaction for your ERP to process. If someone forgets, you miss a payment. SoftCo tracks the obligation and flags when budgets overrun.
Multi-ERP,multi-entity operations
SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, and the rest. Different entities, tax regimes, currencies, and approval chains. Most P2P tools handle one ERP well and patch the others. SoftCo treats every integration as a first-class connection, every entity as its own configuration.
Vendor and compliance risk
Random invoices from unknown suppliers. Bank details changed without verification. Spend committed before procurement approves it. Every gap is a place where fraud enters and compliance fails. SoftCo enforces controls at the point of purchase and validates supplier data before the first invoice arrives.
HOW IT WORKS
Every stage. One audit trail. Full control.
Most P2P tools are assembled from separate products bolted together after the fact. SoftCo delivers procurement, AP automation, contract compliance, supplier management, and payments in one AI-native platform. Your controls, approvals, and audit trail follow every transaction from start to finish.
ERP INTEGRATION
Connects to your ERP.Whatever it is.
SoftCo connects to all ERPs. Whatever you run, it integrates. Certified and pre-built connectors are configured to your environment during implementation. Powered by an enterprise iPaaS layer, integration stays stable through upgrades and scales across multi-ERP landscapes without rework.

FAQ
Frequently askedquestions
Procure-to-pay automation covers the full purchasing lifecycle: from the moment someone in your organisation needs to buy something, through requisition and approval, to invoice receipt, matching, payment, and reporting. SoftCo's P2P automation platform brings procurement, AP, contract compliance, supplier management, and payments into one configured system. Instead of separate tools for each stage, your finance team works within a single workflow with consistent controls, audit trails, and reporting across the entire cycle.
SoftCo is not a standalone procurement suite. If your organisation needs deep sourcing, category management, and supply chain analytics, a dedicated procurement platform is the right fit. Where SoftCo excels is organisations where indirect and operational spend sits outside the ERP with no structured process at all, or where a dedicated procurement system exists for core purchasing but day-to-day operational spend has no controls. SoftCo's eProcurement module integrates directly into the AP and payment workflow, so requisitions, approvals, PO matching, and payment happen within the same platform. No data handoff. No reconciliation gap.
SoftCo integrates with all ERP platforms. Connectors are pre-built and configured during implementation to your ERP version and data structures. For P2P, the integration scope extends beyond invoices: purchase orders, vendor master data, GL accounts, cost centres, tax codes, and goods receipts all flow bi-directionally between SoftCo and your ERP. Whether you run one ERP or a complex multi-ERP landscape, the integration layer handles it.
Yes. SoftCo's Contract Compliance module tracks obligations where no invoice exists: rent, standing orders, recurring service fees, instalments. The system auto-generates the transaction based on the obligation terms, matches it against budget, routes it through the appropriate approval workflow, and pushes it into AP for payment. Budget overruns and hidden charges are flagged before they become problems.
Standard AP deployments go live in 10-12 weeks. A full P2P implementation covering procurement, AP, contract compliance, and supplier management takes longer, depending on the number of modules, your ERP landscape, number of entities, and approval complexity. Most organisations start with AP automation as the core, then extend to eProcurement and other modules as priorities dictate. The Finnish Government rolled out SoftCo P2P to 73 departments within 24 months, processing 1.2 million invoices per annum.
