See the whole process, not just the numbers

A report gives you data. Our analytics tool shows you the entire process: how invoices come in, how they are processed and where most of the time and costs go. This makes it easy to see whether your processes are truly in order and where optimisation can begin.

Analytics in Elari

Practical analyses and features that give you instant insight into your purchasing and invoicing process.

Supplier overview

See at a glance where most of your processing costs lie: the more invoice lines per supplier, the more work for your finance team. From XML invoices to automatic matching with purchase orders, you can see right away where touchless processing delivers the most value. 

Learn more

ABC analysis

Discover which suppliers account for the highest costs, the A category. This helps you decide which suppliers are worth setting up an OCI integration with.
Learn more

Supplier growth

See how many new suppliers you add in a given period. Growing too quickly fragments your spend and increases the risk of errors and processing costs, so this keeps you sharp. 

Learn more

Kraljic matrix

Compare product groups based on supply risk and financial risk. At a glance, you can see where an alternative supplier pays off and which product groups are critical to your operations. 

Invoice format analysis

See the split between paper, PDF and XML in your invoices. This lets you work purposefully towards less paper, less manual work and a shorter lead time.

Frequently asked questions

Here you'll find frequently asked questions about analytics in Elari.

Elari provides continuous insight into the entire purchasing process through real-time dashboards and reports. Instead of periodic overviews, the analytics capabilities turn purchasing and invoice data directly into management information, from supplier management to purchasing volumes.

The central spend reports focus on invoice and order data within Elari Purchase to Pay. In addition, the Purchasing and Contract management modules have their own statistics screens with specific insights into orders and contract agreements.

Elari provides audit reports validated by Mazars that can be exported directly as data files. In addition, all dashboards and reports can be easily exported to PDF, CSV, XLS, or image files for external audits and reporting.

The Kraljic matrix compares product groups in terms of supply risk and financial risk. This gives you immediate insight into which product groups are strategically critical to your operations, and for which categories an alternative supplier offers extra benefits.

Elari offers standard reports such as ABC analyses, Top 25 spend overviews, and Kraljic matrices. These reports allow the software to clearly map out spending by supplier, category, and department.

The comprehensive analytics dashboards are primarily designed for the Purchase to Pay domain. Within Elari Expense (expense claims and payment cards), you can of course still view all transactions in real time, filter them and export them directly to your accounting software.
