Basware Launches Enhanced Mobile App for Purchase-to-Pay

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Basware, the leading provider of e-invoicing and purchase-to-pay solutions, has today announced the availability of Basware Mobile 1.2, bringing the ability to process purchase requisitions into its market-leading native apps for Apple iOS- and Android-powered smartphones and tablets.

As workers become increasingly mobile and accustomed to social collaboration, they expect to be able to access and interact with core business processes and data on the move in order to maximize productivity. Basware Mobile 1.2 delivers a comprehensive purchase-to-pay mobile application to enable users to review, approve and reject invoices and purchase requisitions while on the move. Basware helps businesses further speed up the review and approval cycles of invoice and requisition processing, through the full automation of procurement and accounts payable processes, coupled with anywhere, anytime access to processes and data through browser, tablet and smartphone apps.

In February 2012, Basware launched Alusta, a cloud-based platform for business-to-business transaction collaboration. Basware Mobile 1.2 is an enhancement to the mobility function of Alusta, adding purchase requisitions to invoices already supported within the mobile app. Basware Mobile is fully optimized for all smartphone and tablet devices including mobile web, Android and iOS platforms. It is also designed to allow social collaboration in an enterprise solution.

John Webster, vice president, Global Product Marketing, Basware, said: “Today's businesses and individuals are less encumbered by constraints of time and place, doing their work through a new array of time- and location-independent computing capabilities. Basware understands the purchasing and invoice requirements of its customers. It has made advanced developments in Basware Mobile to take advantage of the mobile and social shifts to enable enterprises to empower their workforce with the capabilities to review and approve tasks on the move. This is a major step forward in mobile and collaboration capabilities for Purchase-to-Pay as a whole, and Basware will continue to develop its technology and services to meet the evolving requirements of businesses.”

Organizations using Basware solutions can add mobile features by purchasing Basware Mobile and simply instructing the mobile users to download free native applications from Apple iTunes or Google Play. Basware Mobile is compatible with Apple iOS 4 to the most recent version announced this fall, as well as Android 2.2 to the most current releases.
