Each position is assigned to one of the following procurement types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Normal<\/li>\n<li>Subcontracting<\/li>\n<li>Consignment<\/li>\n<li>Transfer<\/li>\n<li>Service<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The position includes, among other things, the quantity, unit, and delivery date of the material to be delivered or the quantity and unit of the service to be provided. For positions awarded for subcontracting, the material components to be provided can be specified for each delivery date. The position of the service procurement type can contain a performance specification or alternatively limits. The performance specification can be divided into multiple levels of structure. The performance lines determine the ordered quantity, unit, and date. For performance positions that cannot be specified precisely, value limits are specified instead of performance lines. If services are requested from contracts, the value limit may refer to the specific contract. The costs incurred can be distributed through cost accounting to various controlling objects such as cost centers and PSP elements. A purchase requisition can be processed through purchase orders or framework agreements. It is an internal document that has no use outside the company.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;none&#8221;

!important;}&#8221;]One exciting capability for procurement is the ability to automatically generate purchase orders from purchase requisitions. After selecting various criteria (e.g., &#8220;by purchaser group&#8221; and &#8220;by framework contract&#8221;), the buyer can initiate the job to create purchase orders from the purchase requisitions with the chosen criteria.<\/p>\n<p>By default, the system is configured to automatically approve all purchase requisitions. If this is not desired, the flexible workflow for purchase requisitions needs to be configured.<\/p>\n<p>The flexible workflow is a cross-functional feature that allows for the setup of workflows based on predefined conditions. This includes defining processes with single or multi-stage approval of purchase requisitions. Approvers can approve or reject their &#8220;workitems&#8221; in the &#8220;My Inbox&#8221; app.<\/p>\n<p>Two options are available:[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Overall approval:&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1708286741458{margin-top: 45px !important;margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1708286758110{margin-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;]The entire purchase requisition is approved.

If necessary, it can be configured to send email notifications to the approvers as well. Requesters can also be notified via email when their purchase requisitions are approved or rejected.<\/p>\n<p>Efficient ordering processes: Automatic creation of orders from purchase requisitions. Procurement can effortlessly generate orders based on selected criteria such as purchaser group and framework contract to streamline the workflow.[\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;5050&#8243;
