Service entries.

The contractor submits their estimate in a portal. The facilitator reviews it against a checklist and approves or rejects. On approval, the entry sheet is created in your ERP.

01The flow

Four steps, from portal to your ERP.

01

Contractor portal

The contractor keys in the estimate in the portal, or fills it from their .xlsx form, with its evidence: the form, the period's progress, the photos. No emails, no shared folders.

02

Checklist

The facilitator reviews the estimate against the checklist. Without the mandatory items, the record can't be approved.

03

Approval with context

The facilitator approves or rejects with the service history, the breakdown and the flags in view. A rejection goes back to the contractor with the reason documented.

04

Entry sheet in your ERP

On approval, the entry sheet is created in your SAP, against the purchase order and its line item. The document number comes back to the record, where the vendor sees it.

02The controls

Controls that today don't exist.

Six controls on every estimate. The flags are advisory: they flag, they don't block — the facilitator decides.

Mandatory checklist

The facilitator ticks the checklist; without the mandatory items, the record can't be approved. The items are defined with your team during onboarding.

Line-by-line breakdown

Concept, unit, quantity and unit price for each line. During review, the facilitator sees the breakdown of the last three approved estimates of the same service.

Amount-out-of-pattern flag

The system marks for review any estimate above the service's 12-month high by more than a configurable threshold.

Reused-photos flag

The system compares the progress photos with those of the same service. It marks repeated or near-identical ones, even rescaled or with different brightness. It doesn't verify authenticity.

Segregation of duties

Whoever submits doesn't approve; whoever approves doesn't record the document number. Roles are separated by design, not by habit.

Complete audit log

Every step lands in the log, with owner, date and reason. The approval can be reconstructed afterward.

03ERP integration

The entry sheet, in your system.

The approval lands where your operation already works. The connector to your SAP is set up during onboarding and tested first in your quality environment.

SAP S/4HANA

On approval, the service entry sheet is created in your SAP through the OData service, against the purchase order and its line item.

Document number

The number the ERP returns is stored on the record and the vendor sees it. They invoice with it.

Retry without duplicates

If the posting fails, the approval stands. On retry, the system first checks whether the document already exists in the ERP.

Manual capture

Without a connector, the approved record waits in a queue until Procurement records the document number.

05The platform

Service entries is a solution of the Vigía Legal platform. It can be contracted on its own or together with REPSE Compliance and Foreign trade — on the same portal and the same contractor roster.
