What is P2P, R2R and Q2C

Whether you’re new to the financial operations space or just needed a little refresher, here are the different but critical processes that we know as P2P, R2R, and Q2C:

P2P Cycle

This process covers the supply management process from organizations that require procuring the goods and services to pay for them. The following steps are included in this process:

1. Identification of Requirement
2. Authorization of Purchase Request
3. Final Approval of Purchase Request
4. Procurement
5. Identification of Suppliers
6. Inquiries
7. Receipt of the Quotation
8. Negotiation
9. Selection of the Vendor
10. Purchase Order Acknowledgement
11. Advance Shipment Notice
12. Goods Receipt
13. Invoice Recording
14. 3 Way Match
15. Payment to Supplier

Of course, a key to remember is that this process doesn’t include sourcing or finding suppliers.

Q2C Cycle

The opposite of P2P. The quote-to-cash process is one that covers the following steps:

1. Product/Service Configuration
2. Pricing
3. Quote Creation/Negotiation
4. Contract Lifecycle and Order Management
5. Invoicing
6. Payment Receipt

Quote-to-cash captures only the revenue generating cycle of organizations. This means that it includes the, quoting, and invoicing, but doesn’t include the prospecting customers, customer service, or any support beyond the initial payment.

R2R Cycle

Record-to-Report is an operational management process is sometimes just referred to as reporting. Record to report speaks to the entire process from collecting data and consolidating it in a report format allowing financial organizations to deliver on streamlined accounting integrity as apart of the close process.

The steps of the Record-to-Report process is as follows:

1. Extract data from transaction systems
2. Ensure compliance with accounting standards
3. Transform data into meaningful operations KPIs
4. Determine the best way to present information
5. Share complete results with internal and external stakeholders
6. Engage Stakeholder dialogue

 Making this report as streamlined and easy to follow helps companies make decisions and operational adjustments based on credible and accurate data. It also helps them maintain credibility and compliance with all the satellite members of their organization.
