FAQs about our Sourcing Intake Software
01 What is sourcing intake, and how is it different from a purchase requisition?
Sourcing intake is the front door to procurement: one place where anyone in the business submits a request with the context the procurement team needs to act. A purchase requisition asks to buy something already decided, whereas a sourcing intake request can also open a need that still has to be sourced, quoted, or competed, and Prokuria captures each through a guided form so it arrives complete.
02 How does sourcing intake reduce rogue or maverick spend?
Prokuria’s sourcing intake reduces rogue spend by routing every request through one controlled entry point instead of letting purchases happen over email or outside procurement. Each request is captured with the right context and sent through defined approval rules, so requests that would otherwise bypass policy are seen before anyone commits spend, and intelligent sorting directs spend to the right process from the start.
03 Where does sourcing intake fit alongside Quick Quotes and the RFP/RFQ module?
Sourcing intake comes first in the process and feeds the right sourcing tool downstream. A simple request converts into a Quick Quote for fast pricing, while a larger or more complex need converts into an RFI, RFP, RFQ, or reverse auction. The details captured at intake carry into the event rather than being rebuilt, and because it all happens in Prokuria the request, the event, and the supplier communication stay connected.
04 Who can submit an intake request, and do requester seats cost extra?
Any stakeholder across the business can submit an intake request, which is what intake is for: opening procurement to requesters, approvers, and buyers without each person knowing the sourcing process. Requesters count as users in Prokuria, and plans include a minimum number of users, so in practice adding requesters rarely changes what you pay. Suppliers are not counted as users for billing. Pricing is transparent and modular, so you pay for what you need, and the exact seat arrangement for your rollout is confirmed on a demo.
05 How complex can the approval workflows get, with multi-level and conditional routing?
Approval workflows in Prokuria can run multiple levels and branch on the details of a request, using automated routing, task assignments, notifications, and escalation rules. A low-value request can take a short path while a high-value or sensitive one routes to finance, legal, or a senior approver automatically, and because the widgets are no-code your team builds and changes these rules without IT.
06 Does intake guide requesters to preferred suppliers or existing contracts?
Yes, Prokuria’s intake can steer requesters toward preferred suppliers and existing agreements by shaping the request form and the rules behind it, so people choose from approved options instead of starting from scratch. Guiding requests this way keeps spend on contract and cuts the maverick buying that happens when employees go off on their own.
