Reporting and Analytics

Drive smarter decision making through visibility

Today’s procure-to-pay teams collect huge volumes of transactional data, much of it stored in procurement, payables databases and vendor master files. But are you getting maximum value out of the data you collect? For many businesses, the answer is “no.” They have information stored in multiple formats in isolated systems and databases across divisions and around the globe. As a result, there is no effective way to mine for enterprise-wide insights that can inform strategic business decisions and boost profitability.

The apexanalytix firststrike Reporting and Analytics module offers reporting and analytics capabilities that can help you bridge previously incompatible systems and databases and get the most out of your data resources. You will have newfound visibility into your procure-to-pay operations globally so you can track performance, predict outcomes, isolate problems, uncover savings opportunities and improve your internal controls.
