Procurement group
A procurement group is a level above company where you can consolidate purchasing activities for a flexible multi-company procurement structure. Purchasing functions such as buyers, freight and shipping terms, and agreements are tied together at the procurement group level.
You can assign multiple Purchase Order companies to the same procurement group. All vendors and buyers tied to a procurement group are available to any company that you assign to that procurement group. Agreements are tied to a procurement group so that the agreement can be used by more than one company.
