Overview
The purchasing of direct materials scenario covers the process of material purchase from vendors on a contractual basis for a fixed period of time or an amount of product. It can also be used for purchasing direct works. For repetitive manufacturing, materials are usually purchased under long-run contracts. Purchasing direct materials is started by generating plan-based purchase orders and ends with receiving them in the warehouse for subsequent use in production or sales. The received goods are tracked and stored in the warehouse.
