Documentation

Definition

Allows you to define the procurement type more exactly. The system determines the procurement type from the material type.

Use

You use special procurement when you want to be able to override the procurement type in the material master or define the procurement type more precisely.

If the procurement type is in-house, you can nevertheless force the system to ignore the BOM and routing, and process the material as if it were externally procured, by specifying the special procurement as external.

Procedure

Enter the special procurement type to which you want to restrict the selection.

Example

If you procure a material externally, you may want to choose the special procurement type Consignment. If you produce the material in-house, it may be appropriate to choose Production in other plant.

Dependencies

If a material has a routing but no BOM, it is treated as an externally procured material even if the procurement type is in-house. Both the BOM and the routing are ignored.

However, if you specify the special procurement type as in-house, the routing is included even if the material has no BOM.
