Purchasing

The purchasing function found in abas ERP processes as a continuous transaction, from the initial request to suggested purchase orders, purchase orders, receipt of goods and invoice verification. Working with purchase orders is a central purchasing component. In scheduling, suggested purchase orders are generated when inventory falls below minimum levels. These suggested orders are then converted into requests and actual purchase orders. Blanket orders can also be edited. For each purchase order item, purchase order management is linked to both financial and cost accounting through cost centers, cost objects and accounting assignments.
