Advisory note
Purchasing products directly for a sales order is used in a variety of business models. It can be a one time opportunity, a frequently applied model, or even a type of "outsourced" inventory in a JIT-like set-up. Therefore, the interaction between the sales department, the purchasing department, and the vendor in order to clarify availability and delivery dates might differ. In a opportunity sale, it might even be required to identify a source of supply before any commitment to the customer is given.
