Purchasing

The following steps are required to create the enterprise structure necessary to register procurement transactions:

  • Create a purchasing organisation
  • Assign a purchasing organisation to a company code
  • Assign a purchasing organisation to a plant
  • Assign a  standard purchasing organisation to a plant
  • Define the assignment to a reference purchasing organisation
  • Create a purchasing group

  • Purchasing organisations
    • YA00: Sir Juke, United Kingdom
    • YA10: Sir Juke, Netherlands
  • Purchasing organisation YA00 is assigned to company code YA00
    Purchasing organisation YA10 is assigned to company code YA10
  • Purchasing organisation YA00 is assigned to the plants YA00 and YA01
    Purchasing organisation YA10 is assigned to plant YA10
  • Standard purchasing organisation YA00 is assigned to the plants YA00 and YA01
    Standard purchasing organisation YA10 is assigned to plant YA10
  • Reference purchasing organisation YA00 is assigned to purchasing organisation YA00
