The Ultimate Guide to Vendor Management Strategies

The core of each organisation's procurement process is its vendors. Nonetheless, a lot of businesses sometimes undervalue the significance of building strong bonds with their vendors. Due to this, they sometimes deteriorate the relationship with their vendors and do not receive materials or goods from them. That is why these companies are getting interested in vendor management systems.

Hey if you happen to work for a small business and you use Office 365 for anything and you are not required to use 2FA to log in to your 365 account please talk to your tech people at work and see if they have plans for adding that to your security policy.

We're rolling out 2FA for all our clients who have been hesitant about it and some of them are onboard but many are resistant to the change and it's slow going and we've had 3 customers get hit with session hijacking attacks in the last month. I just had the office manager for one of the businesses we work with call me in tears because one of her customers sent $150k to a fraudulent bank account.

And if you are someone who works in accounts payable and you are doing business to business transfers if one of your customers asks you to transfer to a new account number you need to CALL THEM ON THE PHONE to verify that they really want you to use this new account before you send that money. Asking for an email with a past invoice is NOT a good enough defense against fraud if a malicious actor has taken over your vendor's email and has access to everything they've ever sent you.

While I'm at it, here are some things that I thought were very basic security stuff that are apparently getting overlooked.

CALL TO VERIFY CHANGES. This should be part of your normal policy. You should not accept payment changes, address changes, email changes, ownership changes, point-of-contact etc. from your vendors or customers without first getting on the phone and speaking to someone who YOU PERSONALLY have spoken to at the company in the past and confirming those changes.

DO NOT SEND SENSITIVE INFORMATION THROUGH EMAIL. Usernames, Passwords, Credit Card Numbers, Health information, Personally Identifying information, and all Banking information is all information that you shouldn't send even through encrypted email; either you enter that info on a secure portal or you talk to someone on the phone.

Never, ever, ever give your 2FA codes to anyone. No exceptions. If it's anyone who would legitimately need to access your system they have ways of doing it that do not require you to have access to the system.

Juno, out of curiosity, what does an accountant DO? What does it mean to be one? Because I know there's math involved. I've heard it's very boring. But I don't know anything else and I'm curious because you're very good at putting things to words.

Okay first of all, I cannot express just how excited I got when I first saw this message. There is nothing I love more than talking about things I know about, and usually when my career is mentioned I don't get questions so much as immediate "Oh, bless you" and "I could never"s. Which- totally fair! For some people, accounting would be boring as all hell! But for a multitude of reasons, I adore it.

There are multiple types of accounting. The type most people tend to be more familiar with is that done by CPAs- CPAs, or Certified Public Accountants, are those that have done the lengthy and expensive process to be certified to handle other peoples' tax documents and submit taxes in their name, amongst other things. Yawn, taxes, right? Well, the thing with that is that there's a lot of little loopholes that tax accountants have to remain familiar with, because saving their clients a little more here or getting a little more back there can really add up, and can do a lot for people who, say, have enough money to afford to hire someone to do their taxes but not necessarily enough to be going hog wild with. Public accountants can work for large firms or by themselves, and also do things like preparing financial statements for businesses, auditing businesses to ensure all of their financial transactions are true and accurately reported to shareholders and clients, and consulting on how finances can be managed to maximize revenue (money in - money out = revenue, in very simple terms).

The type of accounting I do is private accounting! That basically just means that I work for a company in their in-house accounting/finance department. Private accounting tends to get split up into several different areas. My company has Payroll, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable.

Payroll handles everyone's paychecks, PTO, ensuring the correct amount of taxes are withheld from individuals per their desires, and so on. Accounts Receivable handles money flow into the company- so when our company sells the product/service, our Accounts Receivable people are the ones who review the work, create the invoices, send the invoices to the clients, remind clients about overdue invoices, receive incoming payments via ACH (Automatic Clearing House- direct bank-to-bank deposits), Wire (Usually used for international transactions), or Check, and prepare statements that show how much revenue we are expected to gain in a period of time, or have gained in a period of time. This requires a lot of interfacing with clients and project managers.

My department is Accounts Payable. Accounts Payable does basically the other side of the coin from what Accounts Receivable does. We work mostly with vendors and our purchasing/receiving departments. We receive invoices from people and companies that have sold us products/services we need in order to make our own products/perform our services, enter them into our ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning, a system that integrates the departments in a company together- there are many different ERPs, and most people simply refer to their ERP as "the system" when talking internally to other employees of the same company that they work at, because saying the name of the system is redundant) using a set of codes that automatically places the costs into appropriate groups to be referenced for later financial reports, and run the payment processing to ensure that the vendors are being paid.

To break that down because I know that was a lot of words, here's some things I do in my day-to-day at work:

- Reconciliations, making sure two different statements match up: the most common one is Credit Card reconciliations, ensuring that there are appropriately coded entries in the system that match the payments made on our credit line in our bank.

- Invoice entry: this is basic data entry, for the most part. This can have two different forms, though

- Purchase Order Invoice entry: Invoices that are matched both to the service/product provided from the vendor and the purchase order created by our Purchasing/Receiving department. We ensure that the item, the quantity, and the price all match between our records, the purchase order, and the invoice, before we enter this.

- Hard Coded Invoice entry: Invoices that we enter manually due to there being no Purchase Order for them. This is often recurring services, like cleaning or repairs, that may happen too often or have prices vary too much for Purchase Orders to be practical.

- Cleaning up old purchase orders: sometimes Purchase Orders are put in the system and then never fulfilled. Because this shows on financial statements as being a long-standing open commitment, it looks bad, so we have to periodically research these and find out if the vendor simply didn't send us the invoice, if the order was cancelled, or if something else is going on.

- Forensics! This is my personal favorite part of the job, where someone has massively borked something that is affecting my work, and so I go dig into it, sometimes going back as four or five years in records to find the origin point of the first mistake, and untangling the threads of what happened following that mistake to get us to where we are today. There's an entire field called Forensic Accounting that is basically just doing This but for other companies (it's a subset of auditing, and often is done via the IRS) and that's my dream position to be totally honest. I loooove the dopamine hit i get with solving the mystery and getting praised for doing so faster than anyone else has even begun to realize the problem to start with.

- Balancing Credits/Debits: This is more of a Main Accountant role thing, but the long and short of it is that every business has Assets, Liabilities, and Equity. Liabilities and Equity are what we put into the company/what we owe, and assets are what we have received/what we are owed. Anything that increases Assets or lowers Liabilities or Equity is a Debit. Anything that decreases Assets or raises Liabilities or Equity is a Credit. Every monetary change we process has to include an equal Debit and Credit. This is its own whole lecture, so if you wanna know more about double-entry accounting, let me know, but it's yawnsville for most people.

- Actually cutting checks or initiating bank payments to vendors for amounts we owe them.

- Vendor communication: I'm on the phones and email a lot with vendors who are wondering where their payment is, or why something was short-paid, or if I can change some of their info in our system, and so on and so on. Every job is customer service, unfortunately. I don't love it, but I do a lot less of it in private accounting than I would have to do in public accounting.

- Spreadsheets: I make so many spreadsheets I am a goddamn Excel wizard. I love spreadsheets. This isn't necessarily accounting-specific though, most people in Finance jobs love spreadsheets, or at least use them to make their lives easier. I make them just for fun, because I'm a giant fucking nerd who finds that kind of thing enjoyable lol. So if you ever need a spreadsheet made for anything, hit me up.

As for math, that's a pretty common misconception. While there is math, it is very rarely more complicated than "I paid $3 of the $8 I owe, now I owe $5" for me. There are some formulas you learn in school (Business Administration with a focus in Accounting is what I studied), but they're also pretty standard and rarely include more than like... basic algebra. Which. Thanks @ god because I flunked so hard out of pre-calc in college. I could not have done accounting if it really were all that math heavy.

Aaaand yeah! That's all I've got off the top of my head- if you have any more questions about it, do let me know, I'm happy to ramble on for hours, but I'm cutting it here so I don't start meandering on without direction lol.

[dollsonmain]

Why the hell am I waking up an hour or more before wakeup time when I'm so damned exhausted???

I NEED SLEEP.

That Guy is still dumping all of the service phone calls and stuff on me even though we're now both at work during normal phone call hours and both can't receive/make personal phone calls while at work. How does that make sense? It doesn't.

Anyway, hopefully the hvac repair office phone is on right at 9 so I can call them since I don't have much time between then and needing to leave for work.

I haven't been down to the salon all week other than an "OH SHIT!" moment when I remembered there were ponies in the SunBox. They're fine.

I'm not fine. I don't have the energy for the stairs. Even when I wasn't working there were many days where just going up and down the stairs was too much.

I WAS going to suggest we go get yard stuff to make those stumps look nicer but we may have to replace our HVAC again. That Guy won't pay for the yearly maintenance so it's no surprise it's broken already.

Getting frustrated at work again.

It's partly just not knowing how things go, partly forgetting things, and partly still just not ever feeling like I'm getting anything done. That persistent feeling of "Task Incomplete" is stressful.

-

There were lots of vendors yesterday because, for some reason, almost all of them come in on Thursday, and I'm not completely "there" on how vendors work, yet.

I have to stand there and read off the printout while they point to the product, then some of them put the stuff away and some don't, some need a check and some don't, some of them need a check sometimes and some need one every time, and some of them need to give an invoice RIGHT THEN to get a check cut while they wait and others give an invoice and pick up the payment the next time and I have no control over the checks and have to go hunt down a manager, and the whole time I'm trying to do the thing with vendors there are customers coming in.

Everyone is frustrated: The vendors because they have to wait for the customers to be dealt with, the customers because they have to wait for me to run over to the register, and me because I'm constantly being interrupted by people who are waiting for me and I am not fast.

Two vendors started chatting and both were like "She over-orders and there's nowhere to put things...." and the Red Bull vendor was like "Hey, so... There's SO much product from us back there that I'm skipping you guys next week."

And he's right, there is SO much back there but it's all buried under other things so it goes unnoticed, gets missed, we decide it's not worth the effort to dig back to get it, whatever....

And it's...... It's partly because of their very loosey goosey inventory keeping system BUT those products all do scan into the register, so I'd blame that actually on how the storage situation hides things and it's difficult for her to know what to order.

We've been out of buns for a couple weeks, now, both the ones for the deli and the ones for customers.

-

I keep being asked to make the deli sandwiches and usually I'm let to do that while the manager is on the register but today I was trying to do sandwiches and register at the same time and the customers like to come in at the most inconvenient times, so my sandwich ingredients are all sitting out, getting warm, I'm taking off my gloves to deal with customers then having to put them back on to start on sandwiches but no, there's another customer as soon as I get them on again and my hands sweat so getting the gloves on and off is DIFFICULT so they're sitting there, waiting, watching me struggle to get the gloves off, usually destroying them in the process.

Multiple times I would get as far as picking up the gloves and another customer would come in and make a bee-line for the register.

Also frustrating that she'll get out lots of ingredients and there's no bread. The bread is kept in the cooler, which is a place where I can't see customers or hear the door, so I have to rush in there, search frantically, pop my head out, of course someone is waiting at the register, run across the store to the register, take care of them, rush back to the cooler, oh someone just came in, back to the register, back to the cooler, oh either we're all out of that kind of bread or it's buried under the dinner rolls but I do. not. have time to dig them out if they are even in there because I can't hear the door.....

Manager says take the hamburger buns from the shelves but there aren't any there, either. I used them all up week before last.

Then she's like "Use this pack of buns." and I'm like "Those hit their sell by date 10 days ago and are completely stale." "Oh..."

Then also "Why are all these tuna salad sandwiches out of place?" "They expired three days ago [and you told me to move expired sandwiches to this spot]." "...... Oh."

There are WAY TOO MANY of the tiny dinner rolls, though. Way too many. So many that the manager can't see that there aren't any of the buns that we do need, so she's not ordering them.

Then not realizing I'd 100% forgotten to clean up after until hours later because I'd gotten distracted by a 30 TOTE delivery, many of which were covered in Mystery Goo, and some had items that needed priced, dated, and put into the cooler ASAP because they're getting warm and oh it's time to go!!!! Shit! I have to count my drawer!!!

And some of those totes had like...2 things in them. Many of them had more of the snack cakes I'd rearranged on Monday and there wasn't any room for that.

Then the next guy comes in and starts doing his normal thing which is stocking the beer cooler and I have to be like "Hey, so, this BIGASS TUB of cold stuff came in like an hour ago and I wasn't able to finish dating, pricing, and putting it out so you're going to have to get that please...."

I feel like my brain is running in circles about it all because it is all just a cyclical mess...

Better inventory management and storage would help a lot, but it's not like they can add storage unless CitGo wanted to provide them with a secure trailer out back or something. There's just not that much room in that building, though they COULD have blocked off a large section to one side and used that for storage instead of selling a bunch of random stuff no one buys, there.

It's so dusty over there.

-

There was a big meeting yesterday and I'm speculating that it might have been the CitGo rep both because he seemed really kind of.... Predatory?? Aggressive? but trying to hide it? and after he left, Manager brought me a store-themed shirt and said we're supposed to wear uniforms but she personally refuses and since she refuses, no one under her has to, either, but she needs me to wear it at least one time.

I don't care either way.

-

Anyway, still no gripes about the manager as a person, she's amicable, patient, and friendly without being a pushover but oof... She very much needs more employees and a second manager wouldn't hurt. I kind of feel like they're hoping I'll be that but um... Probably not happening I'm too scatter brained AND looking for other work, still. Theoretically. I haven't applied to anything new.

Omg it's the perfect gif for how my life at work is right now.

Come with me on this journey, and despair.

Imagine you're me, a project manager. You're tasked with not only making sure shit gets done on time and on budget, but making the numbers add up at the end. That's just project management stuff.

So about the budget thing. This means creating purchase orders, attributing them to the project code, receiving labor and materials, and sending the invoices off to accounts payable. Again, normal pm stuff.

The POs go into a system, because we're not savages and don't track every damn thing on spreadsheets.

Except I DO have to track every damn thing on spreadsheets because did you think that invoices go into that same system as the POs and project? You fool? You absolute buffoon?

Nay, the invoices go into a separate system. That I don't have access to.

Sometimes the vendors play nice and send their invoices to me. This is good because I can check the invoices amount against our PO and 99% of the time everything is cool even if it's over the po amount because we worked that shit out already.

Sometimes the vendors send the invoice straight to AP which wouldn't be a problem if they at least copied me on it, or if AP saw that it was a project invoice and thought, hey, we should send this to the project manager so they can get their shit together.

Sometimes vendors send invoices to random project team members or plant managers. Same problem despite me begging my team to forward all invoices to me.

So along comes project end and time to close the project. They ask, "pm! How much did we spend?" And I can only sigh and take a drag off my metaphorical cigarette and respond, "I know not how much money has changed hands. I can only tell you how much we thought we were spending. Your money, it is a mystery to me."

And after considerable begging someone finally takes pity on me and sends me a report out of the invoice system or, bless them, a zip file of all the invoices attributed to the project code.

And the real fun begins when I see invoices that weren't included or invoices that I never heard of in my life. Just fuckin. random invoices. And I want to put my head against a cheese gråter and go to town.

i saw a very important tiktok recently and knew i immediately needed it as a gif so here it is in case y’all want it as well

Key Advantages of Cloud ERP Over On-Premises Solutions

In today’s fast-paced business environment, companies are constantly seeking ways to enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and scale rapidly. ERP Development has emerged as a crucial enabler in this journey, offering robust solutions for managing core business processes. While traditional on-premises ERP systems have been around for decades, cloud ERP solutions are now leading the charge in transforming how businesses operate. This article delves into the key advantages of cloud ERP over on-premises solutions, offering insights, examples, and actionable takeaways.

Understanding Cloud ERP and On-Premises ERP

On-Premises ERP: Installed locally on a company’s servers and infrastructure, these systems require significant investment in hardware, software licenses, and IT maintenance.

Cloud ERP: Hosted on a vendor’s cloud platform, these solutions are accessible via the internet and operate on a subscription-based model.

The shift to cloud-based solutions represents a paradigm change, offering a host of advantages over their traditional counterparts.

Key Advantages of Cloud ERP Over On-Premises Solutions

1. Cost Efficiency

One of the most significant advantages of cloud ERP is its cost-effectiveness.

Lower Upfront Costs: Unlike on-premises ERP, which requires substantial investments in hardware, cloud ERP operates on a pay-as-you-go subscription model.

Reduced Maintenance Costs: With cloud ERP, businesses avoid the ongoing expenses of maintaining and upgrading servers, as these tasks are managed by the vendor.

Scalability Without Financial Strain: Companies can add users or features as needed, without the financial burden of purchasing additional hardware or licenses.

2. Scalability and Flexibility

Adaptable to Growth: Cloud ERP systems allow businesses to scale up or down based on their operational needs. Whether adding new modules or expanding to new geographies, cloud ERP provides the flexibility to grow without limitations.

Customizable Features: Modern cloud ERP solutions offer a range of modules that can be tailored to specific industries, making them ideal for companies of all sizes.

3. Accessibility and Remote Work

Access Anywhere, Anytime: Cloud ERP systems are accessible via web browsers, allowing employees to work from any location with an internet connection.

Ideal for Remote Work: With the rise of remote and hybrid work models, cloud ERP ensures uninterrupted access to critical business processes, enhancing productivity and collaboration.

4. Faster Implementation

Quicker Deployment: Cloud ERP systems typically have shorter implementation timelines compared to on-premises solutions, which require extensive hardware setup and software installation.

Seamless Updates: Vendors handle system updates and upgrades in the background, ensuring businesses are always using the latest technology.

5. Enhanced Security and Compliance

Data Security: Cloud ERP providers invest heavily in advanced security measures, including encryption, firewalls, and multi-factor authentication, to protect sensitive business data.

Regular Compliance Updates: Vendors ensure that their systems comply with the latest industry regulations, reducing the compliance burden on businesses.

6. Integration and Automation

Seamless Integration: Cloud ERP easily integrates with other cloud-based tools and software, such as CRM systems, e-commerce platforms, and analytics tools.

Automation of Tasks: Features like automated invoicing, payroll processing, and inventory management reduce manual intervention, improving efficiency and accuracy.

7. Real-Time Data and Advanced Analytics

Instant Insights: Cloud ERP systems provide real-time data access, enabling businesses to monitor performance and make informed decisions.

Advanced Analytics: Many cloud ERP platforms include AI-powered analytics tools that help identify trends, forecast demand, and optimize operations.

8. Disaster Recovery and Backup

Automatic Backups: Cloud ERP systems routinely back up data, ensuring it is secure and retrievable in the event of hardware failure or cyberattacks.

Disaster Recovery: Vendors maintain robust disaster recovery protocols, ensuring business continuity during unforeseen events.

Real-World Applications of Cloud ERP
