Procurement group

A procurement group is level at which you assign multiple companies for the purpose of sharing vendor and buyer information.

Procurement groups contain available vendors and buyers. Each company is assigned to only one procurement group. When you assign your company to a procurement group, you automatically have access to all vendors and buyers for that group. Companies can also access existing contract information within a procurement group.

Because certain Inventory Control parameters must be set up before you can define a procurement group, the procurement group setup occurs after you set up Inventory Control.
