Procure-to-pay · Order-to-cash · Logistics One connected platform.

SPICE™ runs procure-to-pay with suppliers, order-to-cash with customers and logistics with carriers and 3PLs on one connected platform, so every purchase order, customer order and shipment shares the same transaction history.

Procure-to-pay: Purchase order to supplier invoice, with every supplier.

  1. Supplier: The supplier receives your purchase order.
  2. Purchase order: Purchase order, acknowledgment and invoice move as one transaction.
  3. Goods shipped: The ship notice tells you what is on its way.

Order-to-cash: Customer order to invoice, in whatever format each customer sends.

  1. Customer: Customers, dealers and retailers order in the format they already use.
  2. Customer order: The order is confirmed, shipped and invoiced on one record.
  3. Order shipped: Your customer gets a ship notice before the goods arrive.

Logistics: Carriers and 3PLs in the same flow.

  1. Carrier: Load tenders and shipment status from every carrier.
  2. 3PL: 3PLs work from the same orders as you.
  3. Delivered: Shipment status shows when the goods arrive.
One connected platform

How a purchase order moves through SPICE™

Your buying side, from purchase order to payment. Supply chain teams call this procure-to-pay. Each step stays linked to the one before it, whichever channel the supplier uses.

  1. Order Your ERP issues the purchase order, and SPICE™ delivers it by EDI, API, web portal or document, whichever the supplier can support.
  2. Confirm The supplier confirms quantities and dates. A missing confirmation raises an alert.
  3. Change Changes carry a reason and follow your approval rules before your records are updated.
  4. Ship The shipment notice keeps the order reference and the packing and label detail you require. The carrier picks up, and tracking flows through SPICE™ so everyone sees the same status.
  5. Receive Your warehouse or 3PL records the receipt, so purchasing, operations and accounts payable share the same evidence.
  6. Invoice The invoice is checked against the order and the receipt. Mismatches go to review instead of into your ERP.
  7. Pay Payment status closes the loop and answers supplier questions.

One collaboration platform between your ERP and every trading partner

01

Both sides of the transaction

Buy, sell and coordinate logistics on one platform. Procure-to-pay with suppliers and order-to-cash with customers share the same collaboration platform, with logistics running through both. Start anywhere, go anywhere: add the next process on the same platform when you’re ready.

02

Elevate your customer experience

Dependable orders and clearer answers. Order accuracy, reliable commitments, timely status and faster issue resolution support the experience your brand promises.

03

Supply chain orchestration

Connected context, rules and actions. SPICE™ keeps orders, changes, shipments, receipts and invoices connected across sites, channels and geographies, in a governed process, not just connectivity. See process orchestration.

Your largest trading partners may be connected. Your full ecosystem usually is not.

Email, spreadsheets, PDFs and separate portals create manual work around a capable ERP. SPICE™ brings those channels into the same governed process as EDI and APIs.

  • Every trading partner: suppliers, customers, carriers and 3PLs. See every trading partner.
  • One accountable team: program design, onboarding and 24×7 production support.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a supply chain collaboration platform?

A supply chain collaboration platform connects a company with its suppliers, customers, carriers and warehouses so they work from the same transactions and rules. The SPICE™ Supply Chain Collaboration Platform sits between your ERP and every trading partner. It handles EDI, APIs, web portals and documents, and keeps each order connected from purchase to payment in a governed process, so your team sees what needs attention.

Who uses SPICE™?

SPICE™ is built for mid-market and enterprise manufacturers, brands, retailers and distributors with complex trading partner ecosystems, including defense and regulated industries. IT leaders usually lead the decision, with supply chain, procurement and customer operations teams as daily users.

Do our trading partners need EDI to work with us through SPICE™?

No. Trading partners can connect by EDI or API, use a guided web portal, or keep sending PDFs, spreadsheets and emails that SPICE™ turns into validated transactions. Every channel feeds the same governed process, so your rules apply the same way to every trading partner, whatever its size or technology.

Does SPICE™ replace our ERP?

No. Your ERP stays the system of record for accounting, inventory and enterprise execution. SPICE™ sits between your ERP and your trading partners. It translates and validates incoming data, keeps related documents connected and delivers clean, ERP-ready transactions, so problems are caught before they reach your core systems.

Do we have to buy the whole platform?

No. Start anywhere, go anywhere. You can begin with procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, logistics or product data and add other processes on the same platform later, without rebuilding what you already run. A consultation maps your priority process, your trading partner channels and the operating model.
