Process Flow
The typical procurement cycle for a service or material consists of the followin
g phases:
1. Determination of Requirements
Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via mate
rials planning and control. (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based
approach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of material
s defined by master records, use of the order-point method, and forecasting on t
he basis of past usage are important aspects of the latter.) You can enter purch
ase requisitions yourself, or they can be generated automatically by the materia
ls planning and control system.
2. Source Determination
The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on
past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements. This speeds the proce
ss of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors elect
ronically via SAP EDI, if desired.
3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations
The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing you to compare a
number of different quotations. Rejection letters can be sent automatically.
4. Purchase Order Processing
The Purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation
to help you create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions, you can gene
rate Pos yourself or have the system generate them automatically. Vendor schedul
ing agreements and contracts (in the SAP System, types of longer-term purchase a
greement) are also supported.
5. Purchase Order Follow-Up
The system checks the reminder periods you have specified and - if necessary - a
utomatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals. It also
provides you with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations
, and purchase orders.
6. Goods Receiving and Inventory Management
Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering th
e Po number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and un
derdeliveries of ordered goods.

7. Invoice Verification
The system supports the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable
clerk is notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access
to PO and goods receipt data. This speeds the process of auditing and clearing i
nvoices for payment.
Pur info record is nothing but a master data like thing which will be maintained
for different materials to determine the prices etc.It Specifies the number tha
t uniquely identifies a record.
For Example: an info record is based on Plant Vendor and Material
Based on these three the Material Prices will be calculated
for different combinations different values are taken into consideration.
During pricing it brings these values automatically based on this info record.
Use ME11 Tcode to create this record.
