Paid Enterprise: Platform Technical Description

Paid Enterprise: Platform Technical Description Technical description

Paid Technology Specification

Paid is a workflow management solution that allows a business (the “Client” of Paid) to invite suppliers and issue work requests to the supplier. Work requests then receive a response from the supplier, either to accept or decline. Once accepted by the supplier (which is done via e-signature so the acceptance creates a contract subject to specific terms and conditions), the Paid software provides the tools to manage the completion of the work (via a completion notification by the supplier to the Client through the Paid platform, and confirmation by the Client via a ‘completion confirmation document') with any evidence needed to be provided by the supplier (specified in advance by the Client as part of the initial work configuration). Finally, once completion has been confirmed, the Paid software automatically generates invoices on behalf of the supplier and optionally provides supply chain finance (i.e. ‘faster payment’ to the supplier). 

Paid is available online at [Clientname].paid.co.uk
