Detailed Process Description:
MM Subcontracting
A subcontract purchase requisition is either generated via the Material
Requirements Planning (MRP) process or manually by a requestor. A buyer
validates the accuracy of the purchase requisition and converts it into a purchase
order. The purchase order is subject to approval based on predefined parameters
prior to being issued to a vendor.
The consumption of sent components is recorded upon receipt of the value-added
finished material. The vendor sends the invoice for the services provided which is
paid during the normal payment cycle.
