An overview of the functions is available in the following sections:
Ordering & Settlement
The buyer can initiate orders for planned services in your SAP system and they are sent online to your service provider via Futura Ordering. In turn, they can also record their activities online. The activity record can be checked and approved directly in Futura Ordering.
After the services rendered have been checked, amended and approved, Futura Ordering automatically creates the relevant activity record sheet in your SAP system.
Then the supplier can either send you his invoice or a credit memo procedure can be initiated.
Credit Memo Procedure
In case you have agreed upon a credit memo procedure with your suppliers, they do not have to issue an invoice and as a result you do not have to check and approve any invoices. The advantage is: The completion of the business transaction is speeded up and your supplier is paid more promptly.
Activity Record Sheet
In SAP the activity record sheet is used in order to bill services rendered. Futura Ordering particularly supports the settlement of planned services.
Activity Amendment
As your supplier’s connection to your ordering and settlement process is bidirectional, you can check, amend or approve services rendered online. The process is the following: The activity recording is exchanged between buyer and service provider until it is accepted or approved. Only then does Futura Ordering automatically create the activity record sheet in SAP.
