Purchase Order Management Software
Purchase order management software controls how a business buys materials and services, from the first request to goods receipt and payment. Manacle purchase order management software, part of mSELL ERP, lets teams create error-free purchase orders with pre-filled vendor and item data, route them through approvals and track every PO until delivery.
Vendor details, price contracts and order history sit in one place, and POs sync with inventory and accounts to avoid double entry. Finance can compare planned vs actual spend by department and spot cost leaks early, giving procurement full control without slowing the business down. In short, it is purchase order software, purchase management software and a PO management system in one.

PO to GRN to Invoice: Three-Way Matching
Three-way matching checks that what you ordered, what you received and what you were billed for all agree before a supplier is paid.
- Purchase order: the approved PO sets the item, quantity and price.
- Goods receipt note (GRN): the store records what actually arrived against the PO.
- Supplier invoice: the bill is matched to the PO and GRN, and only matching lines are cleared for payment.
