Overview
Once the company receives goods from a vendor within the VMI procurement scenario, it tracks VMI procurement transactions.
The company needs to analyze the VMI consumption regularly.
The process covers the VMI consumption for the Order-to-Cash and Plan-to-Produce scenarios and the VMI consumption to fulfill business unit functions.
The company also needs to track vendor's notifications of consumed VMI.
As a result of the process, all VMI procurement transactions are monitored.
