SAP Business ByDesign allows you to automate the procurement of office supplies. You can define this based on various criteria in the system. The automatic creation of the purchase order is controlled by the following matrix:
Matrix for automatic creation of orders
You can granularly control the determination based on the company number, vendor number, origin type or product category.
Automation
It is recommended to automate this in larger companies. Users can use the shopping cart and report the corresponding requirements there. These requirements are created as a purchase requisition in the system and would then be converted into a purchase order and ordered by the responsible purchaser.
Since this involves consumables, it is advisable to relieve the buyer and have the purchase order generated automatically. SAP Business ByDesign also enables the definition and use of an approval process for purchase requisitions or purchase orders. This allows exceptions to be caught, for example, based on the “net value of the purchase order”.
Use this standard functionality to simplify the process flow and generate the business documents in the system, so you have complete transparency and can also evaluate this in the standard reports provided.
The automatic creation of purchase orders can also be used for classic stockpiling.
