Overview

The purchasing standard services scenario covers the process of receiving services from vendors on a contractual basis for a fixed period of time or an amount of service.

Typically, these standard services are used for general and supporting activities. Direct production services or works or outsourcing business processes are not covered by this scenario.

The services are regularly purchased under long-run or recurring contracts.
