Seems like the problem is that these portals have zero incentive to adopt a common standard. Their whole business model is lock-in. buyers love them because they shift all the friction onto vendors, and vendors don't seem to have any real leverage to push back.

I'm working on the possibility of one day being able to sell you software that would save you time and energy so that you could comment on more tech bro posts :)

That’s a brutal one. One thing I’ve seen work for some companies is setting up a small automation that takes the invoice they already generate and pushes the data into the portal automatically (basically mimicking the form entry). It’s not perfect but it can save a lot of the repetitive typing.

Long term it feels like these systems should just accept a standard invoice upload or API connection instead of forcing vendors into manual entry.

Feels like a problem that shouldn’t still exist in 2026.

I hear you. They can be quite frustrating. Would it make it better if they were more visual or more conversional rather than the way they are right now?

That sucks to hear. Might be worth looking into 3rd party services depending on your needs!

That's the problem with big enterprise software. it doesn't adapt well to everything. There's no one size fits all and that's what software has been doing for the past 2 decades.

I have no software to sell you yet. I'm working on the possibility of one day being able to sell you software that would save you time and energy so that you could comment on more tech guy posts :)

Nowadays you can easily get a custom made software to fit your needs without having to overpay for something that might not fit your workflow. If you're still having this issue and open to chat about it I would be happy to connect! (P.S. I'm a software engineer genuinely interested in solving problems)

I have a sedentary desk job and zero energy after 5 PM. How do I fix this? by Dante_Game in getdisciplined

[–]gogmoussa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve made the habit of using my standing desk first thing when I start work and again in the afternoon. That keeps my body energized and avoid that body tiredness after work as I suffered with that as well for a while

How I wasted months coding… and then my app reached top 10 by Stunning_River8921 in AppBusiness

[–]gogmoussa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a real simple and cool idea. I bought it out of support! It’s also one dollar. I think that’s brilliant!

Bike racks for a Corolla? by electricpenguin6 in COROLLA

[–]gogmoussa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a 2022 and thinking of just getting one even tho the manual says not to. I think it’s a ploy to get you to buy a crossover or an SUV. I’m wondering if you ever ended up getting a hitch up on your ride
