“Seamless integration between Planergy and Amazon Business enables a centralized purchasing experience and accounts payable processing, with real-time order availability through Amazon Business’ online store, and supports a compliant spend management experience as orders are approved prior to being fulfilled,” the announcement stated.
The companies stated that the arrangement will let businesses run purchases from Amazon Business through Planergy’s approval system. Once an ordered is authorized, Planergy will generate a purchase order linked to the Amazon order.
“This makes the process easy, worry-free, with no additional procurement steps,” the announcement said.
The rest of the order-fulfillment process will include steps that generate various verification documents.
“Seamless and painless accounts payable processing with full compliance audit trails is an achievable reality for midmarket businesses,” Planergy Chief Executive Michael Higgins said in a prepared statement.
