Cordango Purchase Requests is a purchasing form that routes approvals according to the amount requested. A request can include line items, supplier quotes, and the budget line intended to fund it. Smaller requests can stop at a manager, while larger ones can go to finance and management; users cannot approve their own requests. The app records the approval decision trail and actual purchase cost alongside the estimate. It is built on Budget & Spend Tracker, which installs with it and records approved commitments against budget lines. Optional companion apps include Asset Register, which receives purchased hardware, and Vendor & SaaS Management, which can start a draft request when a vendor is approved. The official app is version 0.4.0 and includes sample data. Cordango says its platform has single sign-on, roles, permissions, and a shared audit trail, and is hosted in Germany on EU infrastructure. Its published GDPR data processing agreement is a draft, not yet contractually binding. Cordango lists a free Solo plan for one person; Company plans require at least five people.
