Documentation

Definition

Key for a buyer or a group of buyers, who is/are responsible for certain purchasing activities.

Use

Frequently, purchasing documents (such as purchase orders) are monitored by the purchasing group. Urging letters (in the case of overdue deliveries) fall also within the group's scope of activities.

For each purchasing group, statistical analyses can be performed. The purchasing group can be used as a sort criterion when creating purchasing-specific reports.
