FAQ

FAQ’s

What is ServiceNow Source to Pay (S2P)?
Arrow Down

ServiceNow S2P is a digital procurement solution built on the ServiceNow platform that streamlines the entire procurement lifecycle—from sourcing and contract management to purchasing and invoice reconciliation. It helps organizations increase procurement efficiency, compliance, and visibility.

What are the core modules of ServiceNow S2P?
Arrow Down

Core components typically include:
• Sourcing Management
• Procurement Operations (Purchase Requests & Orders)
• Supplier Management
• Catalogue Management
• Invoice Management (in some setups, integrated with AP platforms)

Can ServiceNow S2P be used for both indirect and direct procurement?
Arrow Down

Yes. While it is often implemented first for indirect procurement (e.g., IT services, office supplies), the platform can be configured or extended (via App Engine) for direct procurement scenarios, especially with custom forms, workflows, and ERP integrations.

How doeServiceNow S2P integrate with ERP systems like SAP or Oracle?
Arrow Down

ServiceNow uses IntegrationHub and prebuilt spokes (or custom APIs) to integrate with ERP systems. Typical integration points include master data sync (vendors, materials), PO/PR creation, invoice status, and payment confirmation.

Is ServiceNow S2P compliant with public sector requirements like EN16931?
Arrow Down

ServiceNow’s native product is not yet fully aligned with EN16931 out of the box, but partners and customers have implemented custom solutions to meet e-invoicing and public procurement compliance standards. This is an area under development.

Can I configure multi-level approvals and budget validations in S2P?
Arrow Down

Yes. You can use Flow Designer or App Engine to configure dynamic, rule-based approval workflows, including budget control integration, cost center logic, and user delegation.
