Definition

Allows differentiation between the various kinds of purchasing document.

Use

On the basis of the purchasing document type you can, for example, distinguish between a standard purchase order and a stock transport order, although both documents belong to the purchasing document category purchase requisition.

The purchasing document type controls, for instance, the number assignment for a purchase order, as well as the fields to be maintained.
