eRequisition vs TOKN Purchase Order App

eRequisition is web-based software for managing purchase requisitions and purchase order approvals. A request can pass through a customized workflow with up to six reviewers; after approval, it can become a purchase order in QuickBooks or NetSuite. Integrations are listed for QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, and NetSuite. The Desktop connection requires an eRequisition agent on the system containing the QuickBooks company file. The standalone plan supports Excel imports for locations, vendors, items, charts of accounts, classes, ship methods, and terms. Teams can track purchases across departments, vendors, and items and analyze historical buying data. Other listed tools include email approvals, vendor creation, attachments, internal chat, configurable roles and permissions, approval limits, routing, and approval history. The homepage states that eRequisition is SOC 2 Type II certified, and plans include chat and email support. A 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Monthly single-user plans are $11.99 a month for QuickBooks Online, $15 a month for standalone, and $30 a month for NetSuite or QuickBooks Desktop.

TOKN Purchase Order App lets workers create and manage purchase orders from mobile devices. Users can view, approve, receipt and transfer orders, attach images or files, and capture signatures. The app can show stock levels, pricing and availability, and search purchase order history and suppliers. TOKN describes it as an offline app that can capture transactions and provide a PO number immediately. The purchasing capability lists real-time integrations with SAP, Pronto, MYOB and Xero. Organizations can add or remove fields and change the app’s design, and users can produce PDF copies of transactions. Native clients are available for Android, iOS and Windows 10, with browser access also supported. TOKN identifies itself as ISO 27001-certified and says its platform encrypts data at rest and in transit, with AWS VPC network controls and firewalls. The platform also lists API access. Pricing is available on request and scales by users and apps. TOKN offers business integration partners a one-month free trial; the page does not specify a purchase-order-app-specific trial.
