When a vendor has been selected, a purchase order can be
automatically generated from the request. All requests are automatically
stored in a request archive. Using the archive data it will be apparent if a
request resulted in a purchase order.
3.3.2. Purchase order suggestions
The central component of purchasing is the purchase order management.
In scheduling purchase order suggestions are generated by the net
requirements determination or if stock levels fall below the minimum stock
levels. These purchase order suggestions then lead to purchase orders. As
in sales, purchase blanket orders with vendors can be processed as well.
They relate to particular products and contain defined release quantities,
graduated prices and discounts. By defining specific release quantities, all
required goods can be ordered easily within a certain period of time.
