PO Management

Most PO work starts after the PO is sent.

Lio agents read every order confirmation, whether it comes as an email, a PDF or a handwritten note, and check it against the PO. Buyers only see the deviations that fall outside your rules.

Three documents, three versions of the truth.

Once a PO goes out, the manual work starts: chasing confirmations, reading supplier emails, answering "where is my order?" and fixing receipts that block invoices. Lio's agents do that follow-through across your existing systems.

Confirmations are compared by hand

Price, quantity and date all need checking on every order, and the work repeats for every reply.

Deviations surface late

Each gap between PO, confirmation and delivery has to be caught by someone. Today that is usually a buyer, by hand.

Suppliers don’t use your portal

Registration and training take time, and adoption stays low, especially among smaller suppliers. Orders keep moving by email.

Suppliers keep replying the way they already do.

Lio reads PDFs, scans and email text in the supplier’s own format and language, and matches each line to the PO. Structured data is used when a supplier sends it, but nothing requires it.

No portal, no onboarding

PDFs, scans and email replies, matched line by line.

Suppliers keep sending PDFs, scans and email replies. The agent extracts the lines and matches them to the PO, line by line.

Five deviation types, checked every time

Price, quantity, date, added charges and wrong items.

Price, quantity, delivery date, added charges and wrong items are compared on every confirmation. Differences within your tolerances pass. Everything else goes to a buyer.

Tolerances and rules are yours

Tolerances, auto-accept limits and the fields that get compared.

Set how far a total, a delivery date, a quantity or a unit price may differ before it counts as a deviation. Set which added charges are accepted automatically, and up to which amount per line. Calendar weeks such as KW 12 are compared as the Monday of that week.

Handwritten documents, read and matched

Handwritten confirmations and delivery notes, matched to the PO.

Handwritten changes and delivery notes are read along with printed ones. Custom prompts describe how a supplier writes, so the agent reads its documents correctly. A wrong item is caught from its description, even when the quantity matches.

Your team keeps control

Unclear cases go to a person. Every decision traces to a rule.

The agent decides only its own approval step. Unclear cases go to a person, and every decision traces back to a rule you set.

Start with review. Move standard cases to no-touch.

Buyers review what the agent prepares first. As confidence grows, selected case types move to no-touch, usually starting with tail spend.

Accuracy, review time and SLA compliance are measured together. Once they hold, selected cases run without a buyer, and the audit trail shows every decision.
