And the best part? – You can access it from anywhere.

EPO in a nutshell

Multi-company support – Multi-company support within one EPO system, supporting multiple Evolution companies in a single online environment.

Seamless integration with Sage Evolution – Whenever the status of a document changes, these changes are directly visible in both Sage Evolution and in the EPO web environment.

Full history and audit trail, and extensive (customizable) reports – All documents, whether approved or rejected, will be stored directly in the application.

Accessible for both domain and Sage users – Not every EPO user needs a Sage Evolution account. User accounts can be set up using both Sage Evolution and domain users.

Multi-currency support – The EPO module supports documents in multiple currencies. Hence, you will be able to create documents with all the currencies that are active in your company’s database.

Facilitated online access – Easy access to the entire procurement process, from the submission of a purchase requisition to the final purchase order approval – anywhere, anytime – even when you do not have direct access to your company’s network. Take advantage of on- and offshore notifications, and send purchase orders directly to suppliers.
