Process Flow

Request→Approve→Source→Purchase order→Receive→Verify invoice

What This Covers

  • Material and supplier master data
  • Purchase requisitions, approvals and purchase orders
  • Goods receipt, inventory movement and invoice verification
  • Procure-to-Pay controls and reporting

Common Delivery Challenges

  • Copying old approval steps without redesign
  • Inconsistent units of measure and material masters
  • Ignoring exception handling for returns, partial delivery or blocked invoices

Practical Guidance

Use a simple process baseline before configuration begins.

Define who owns material, vendor and purchasing-condition data.

Test routine and exception scenarios with the people who perform the work.
