The limits of a Manual validation
Companies face recurring issues when it comes to tracking their contracts: scattered documents, lack of visibility, missed deadlines and tacit renewals… These difficulties represent both a financial and organizational risk.
Slow and error-prone validations
When a validation circuit relies on emails, scattered files, or informal transmissions, the chances of errors increase. Requests get lost, approvals arrive late, and teams have to compensate with time-consuming reminders. An automated system eliminates this friction and ensures consistent processing, without repetitive interventions.
Lack of traceability and difficulties in tracking approvals
Without a dedicated tool, it quickly becomes impossible to know where a request stands, who must validate it, or what actions have been taken. This lack of visibility once again slows down the teams, lengthens deadlines and complicates internal arbitration. A centralized solution allows everyone to follow up with a clear and accessible history when needed.
Loss of Control and Financial Risk
Unformalized validations sometimes lead to unauthorized commitments, budget overruns or a lack of compliance with internal procedures. These failures put the company at operational and financial risk. By structuring the validation circuits, Weproc reinforces the security of commitments and ensures complete control of authorizations.
The solution? Define workflows!
Circuit de Validation
Adapt the software to the way you work by customizing your workflow.
A workflow in action: how does it work?
1. A request is created: The user issues a purchase, contract, or commitment request.
2. Rules apply automatically: Weproc determines the right circuit according to the defined rules.
3. Approvers (defined in the workflow) are notified: each one validates , rejects or comments from their interface.
4. Actions are recorded: everything is automatically traced and archived.
5. The request continues its cycle: once validated, it turns into an order, contract or invoice depending on your process.

FAQ – Features for Automate your process
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions? We have the answers!
A validation circuit is a structured and organized process that allows you to control and approve purchase requests within a company. This mechanism promotes better management of suppliers, contracts and catalogues of products or services.
The workflow system is essential in procurement management because it helps ensure compliance with internal policies, avoid unnecessary expenses, and optimize allocated budgets . In addition, a well-defined validation circuit facilitates communication between the various stakeholders and ensures efficient follow-up of your files, projects and internal affairs.
To set up a validation circuit adapted to your company, it is important to follow several steps.
First, identify the key players involved in the purchasing process and define their respective responsibilities. Then, establish clear validation rules according to the purchase families and budget thresholds. Also remember to take into account the specificities of your company, especially if you manage several establishments. Integrate these rules into a workflow that will automate and streamline the validation process!
An automated validation circuit has several advantages for companies :
- It saves time by reducing the time it takes to process purchase requests and facilitating communication between the various stakeholders.
- It ensures better traceability of files and cases, thus promoting the analytical monitoring of expenses.
- Automating the validation circuit reduces human error and the risk of non-compliance, while providing a holistic view of budgets and contracts with suppliers.
Exception handling in a validation circuit is the process of identifying and addressing special cases that do not follow the standard validation process.
To effectively manage these exceptions, it is essential to have clear and appropriate procedures in place, to train the company’s departments and to ensure smooth communication between the various stakeholders. An exception analytics tracking system will also help identify any malfunctions and adjust the validation process accordingly.
To ensure the continuity of the validation circuit in the event of the absence or unavailability of a key player, it is important to provide alternative or delegation solutions. You can designate alternates to take over the validation responsibilities in the event of the absence of the lead validator.
