Overview

Once products are manufactured, the subcontractor provides information on the consumed raw materials and components received within the subcontracting purchase order.

Within this process, the company registers information about the actually consumed amount of raw materials and components in the system.

If the actual consumption is greater or less than the planned quantity, the company initiates pick-up of unused raw materials or fill-up of additional raw materials.

As a result of this process, actually consumed resources are registered.
