Important Definitions
Organizational Levels in the Procurement Process

1. Client: Client is the highest hierarchical level. Specifications or data saved at this level is applicable to all company codes & all other units. User Master record must be created in the client. Defined by three digit numeric key.
2. Company Code: Company is the smallest organizational unit of external accounting for which a complete, self-contained book keeping system can be replicated. It is defined by four character alphanumeric key.
3. Plant: Plant is an organizational unit within logistics. Since the key of a plant is unique in a client & a plant can only belong to one company code, by specifying the plant, you simultaneously specify the company code. It is defined by four character alphanumeric key. 4. Storage Location: Inventory management on a quantity basis is carried out in the plant at storage location level. When you specify a storage location you always specify the plant too. It is defined by four character alphanumeric key.
Purchasing Group & Purchasing Organization:

1. Purchasing Group: Internally responsible for procurement of material. Externally dealings with its vendors.
2. Purchasing Organization: is an organizational unit within logistics that subdivides the enterprise according to the purchasing requirements.
Procurement Cycle:
1. Determination of Requirement- Purchase Requisitions Manual &/ Or MRP 2. Determination of source of supply 3. Vendor Selection 4. Purchase Order handling 5. Purchase order monitoring 6. Goods Receipt 7. Invoice Verification 8. Payment Processing

2 Master Data
2.1 Material Master
Use
The material master record is an enterprises main source of material specific data. It is used by all areas of logistics in the SAP R/3 system. The integration of all material data in a single database object eliminates the problem of data redundancy. All areas, such as purchasing, inventory management, materials planning, & invoice verification, can jointly use the data stored.
1. Material Type: Material with the same properties are assigned to the same material type. Material type controls The type of Number Assignment (Internal or External) The permissible number range intervals. Which screen appear & in which order. Which user department-specific data is suggested for entry (in views). Which procurement type is allowed for a material. It determines which accounts are posted when a receipt or issue of material from warehouse is booked.
2. Industry Sector: determines Which screens appear & in which order. Which industry specific fields appear on each sectors.
3. Item Category: The item category enables you to replicate different procurement processes. The document type determines which item categories are available for selection. The item categories specifies whether a material number, an account assignment, a goods receipt, & / or invoice receipt are possible or necessary for an item.
4. Valuation Class: Valuation class is maintained in Accounting View of the Material Master Record. In automatic account determination, the valuation class is used to determine which stock account is to be updated during the goods movements of a material. The valuation class is a key used to group together materials with the same account determination. The permissible valuation classes depend on the material type.
5. Reorder Point Planning: Automatically Reorder point is decided by MRP controller. Automatically Reorder based on forecast.
Page 11 of 194
Project Deep Roots
The system checks available stock for MRP (sum of plant stock & fixed receipts).
6. Moving Average Price: In valuation using the moving average price, the system valuates goods receipts with the P.O. price & goods issues with the current moving avg. price. Moving Average Price = Total Stock Value/ Total Stock Quantity Any differences from the P.O. price that occur during the invoice receipt are posted directly to the stock account during stock coverage, & the system determines a new moving average price.
7. Fixed Order Quantity: The system creates an order proposal for the fixed lot size in the case of a material shortage. If this order quantity is not sufficient to cover the shortage, the system generates several order proposals for the same date until the shortage is covered.
8. Replenish Quantity: If you select replenish to maximum stock level & a material shortage occurs, the system creates an order proposal for the quantity required to bring the stock level up to the maximum stock level that is recorded in the material master record.

3.7 Creating Contract

Use
A contract establishes a long-term agreement with a vendor to supply a material or services. Contracts may either be rate contract, value contracts or quantity contracts. Rate contract specifies the rate at which material or services to be provided for specified period. Value contracts have a ceiling that is a monetary amount that should not be exceeded. A quantity contact specifies a ceiling of goods or services that the vendor will provide to us. Contracts do not specify delivery dates; this is determined when release orders are issued against the contract.
This transaction is optional for the process.
If Contract is created with reference to Quotation, all the data like vendor code, material code, price information etc., will be automatically copied in to Contract.

4.2 Transfer Postings & Stock Transfer

Use
The properties of some materials change in the course of time, necessitating a change in the numbers under which they are managed. In such cases, you have to make a material to material transfer postings. In the case of transfer postings, the key aspect is a change in the stock ID number or the stock category of a material. Transfer postings need not involve an actual (physical) goods movement. A stock transfer/ transfer posting consists of a goods issue from the issuing point & a goods receipt at the receiving point. The goods issue & goods receipt can be entered with a single posting for all transfer postings/stock transfers.

4.5 Physical Inventory

Use
There are several reasons why an enterprise should inventory its stocks at regular intervals. This inventory- taking checks the stocks of material to establish the current assets that are to be listed in the company balance sheet. It is also important for internal reasons to establish the correct stock quantities on hand. It is the goal of Material Requirement Planning, for example, to ensure the availability of materials at all times while at the same time minimizing stockholdings. Incorrect stock data leads to faulty availability figures.
