Basic Procurement Philosophy



Introduction To Procurement Definition

The process of obtaining services, supplies, and equipment from a vendor is called Procurement.

The procurement department or the purchase department within an organization normally manages the majority of purchasing.

Exceptions may lie in large industrial complexes where procurement may also be handled by engineering, or third party outsourced companies.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Basic Procurement Philosophy



Introduction to Procurement (…Cntd) For organizations Procurement is the acquisition of goods or services at the best possible price, in the right quantity, at the right time, in the right place. The complexity of procurement is trying to “get the balance right”, for example: 

Organizations try to keep inventory levels at a minimum due to the costs associated with high levels of inventory, but at the same time it is very costly to stop production due to shortages in raw materials for example.



Getting the lowest price for a product or service is always important, but the balance between product availability, quality, and vendor relations can be more important.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Basic Procurement Philosophy



The Procurement Lifecycle In most modern organizations the Procurement lifecycle has the following steps: 1. Information Gathering: If the potential customer does not already have an established relationship with sales/ marketing functions of suppliers of needed products and services, it is necessary to search for suppliers who can satisfy the requirements.

2. Supplier Contact: When one or more suitable suppliers have been identified, Requests for Quotes (RFQ), Requests for Proposals (RFP), Requests for Information (RFI) or Requests for Bids (RFB) may be advertised, or direct contact may be made with the suppliers.

3. Background Review: References for product/service quality are consulted, and any requirements for followup services including installation, maintenance, and warranty are investigated. Samples of the products or services being considered may be examined, or trials undertaken. Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Basic Procurement Philosophy



The Procurement Lifecycle (…Cntd) 4. Negotiation: Negotiations are undertaken, and price, availability, and customisation possibilities are established. Delivery schedules are negotiated, and a contract to acquire the products or services is completed. The contract is a mutually binding legal document.

5. Fulfilment: Supplier preparation, shipment, delivery, and payment for the products or services are completed, based on contract terms. Installation and training may also be included.

6. Consumption, Maintenance and Disposal: During this phase the company evaluates the performance of the products or services and any accompanying service support, as they are consumed.

Basic Procurement Philosophy



The Procurement Lifecycle (…Cntd) 7. Renewal: When the products or services have been consumed and/or disposed of, the contract expires, or the product or service is to be re-ordered, company experience with the products or services is reviewed. If the products or services are to be re-ordered, the company determines whether to consider other suppliers or to continue with the same supplier.

Basic Procurement Philosophy



Basic Procurement Activities Determination of Requirement

What Materials or Services are required?

Requisition

The form or electronic transmission used to inform the purchasing department that purchased items or services are needed for a business purpose

Purchase Order

When the requisition is approved it becomes a Purchase Order. A PO typically includes item, quantity, price, discounts, vendor information, and ship-to information

Goods Receipt / Invoice Received

Invoice Verification / Vendor Payment Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

The material is received. Condition and quality are verified / The invoice is received from the vendor.

Reconciliation of the invoice and the purchase order is accomplished /The Vendor is paid

Basic Procurement Philosophy



Direct Vs. Indirect Procurement Based on the consumption purposes of the acquired goods and services, procurement activities are often split into two distinct categories. The first category being direct, production-related procurement and the second being indirect, non-production-related procurement. 

Direct procurement occurs in manufacturing settings only. It encompasses all items that are part of finished products, such as raw material, components and parts. Direct procurement, which is the focus in supply chain management, directly affects the production process of manufacturing firms.



Indirect procurement activities concern “operating resources” that a company purchases to enable its operations. It comprises a wide variety of goods and services, from standardised low value items like office supplies and machine lubricants to complex and costly products and services like heavy equipment and consulting services.

Note: Terms Direct/Indirect procurement are not always used as cited above. However, the above is an industry standard.

Procurement in IT Systems



Recapping General cycle of activities: 1. Determination of Requirements Materials requirements are either identified by users or automatically by the IT system of the organization & passed on to the Purchasing department via Purchase requisitions.

2. Source Determination The IT System helps you identify potential sources of supply based on old orders and existing longer-term agreements with the vendor. This speeds the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors.

3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations After receiving the Quotations from the invited vendors, the purchasing department compares them and chooses the most appropriate vendor to complete the order.

4. Purchase Order Processing The Purchasing system takes up input data from the requisition and the quotation to help the user create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions, the user can generate POs or have the system generate them automatically.

Procurement in IT Systems



Recapping General cycle of activities: (…Cntd) Purchase Order Monitoring The buyer (or Purchasing Officer) can check the status of the PO i.e. if the goods or invoices have been received. Generally Procurement IT systems can also be configured to automatically check PO progress and to issue reminders or expediters at predefined intervals.

Goods Receipt Goods receiving personnel (normally warehouse personnel) can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the PO number into the system. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and under deliveries of ordered goods.

Invoice Verification Vendor invoices are checked for accuracy of prices and contents. Buyers can also specify permissible value tolerances for invoices.

Payment Processing Based on the invoice verification, the Accounts Dept / Accounts Payable normally deals with vendor payments.

Procurement in IT Systems Types of Procurement Procurement for Stock vs. Consumption External vs. Internal Procurement

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Procurement in IT Systems



Types of Procurement Procurement for Stock vs. Consumption Procurement for Stock A stock material is a material that is kept in stock. These materials are kept in stock once received from the vendor. The stock of this material keeps on increasing or decreasing based on amount of the quantity received or issued.

To order a material for stock, the material ‘must’ have a master record in the system.

Procurement for Direct Consumption When procurement is for direct consumption, the user must specify the consumption purpose. By entering an account assignment (for example, a cost center).

To order a material for consumption, the material ‘may’ have a master record in the system.

Types of Procurement External vs. Internal Procurement External Procurement Is the process of procuring goods or services from external vendors.

Internal Procurement Refers to trade happening between the different entities of the same organization.

Procurement in IT Systems



Types of Procurement External vs. Internal Procurement (…Cntd) 

External Procurement There are 3 basic forms of external procurement generally supported by the Purchasing component of IT systems.

 One-time purchase orders

 Longer-term contracts with the subsequent issue of release orders

 Longer-term scheduling agreements and delivery schedules

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Procurement in IT Systems



Types of Procurement External vs. Internal Procurement (…Cntd) 

External Procurement One-Time Purchase Order You use one-time orders for materials or services that you order irregularly. You can reference a purchase requisition, RFQ, or another PO when creating a one-time order.

Contract and Release Orders For materials that are being ordered regularly and in large quantities, we can negotiate a deal with the vendor for pricing or conditions & record then in a contract. In a contract you also specify the validity date.

Scheduling Agreement If a material is ordered on a regular basis and is to be delivered according to an exact time schedule, then you set up a scheduling agreement. This method of procurement is typically used when Just-in-Time deliveries are required from the vendor (for example, in the automobile industry).

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Procurement in IT Systems



Types of Procurement External vs. Internal Procurement (…Cntd) 

Internal Procurement

Large corporate organizations may own multiple separate businesses or companies. Each of these companies maintains a complete bookkeeping system with separate Balance Sheets and Profit & Loss Statements and hence when trade occurs between them it needs to be recorded.

Key activities: 

Creating a Purchase Order at the receiving Company



Creating delivery and billing documents at the issuing Company (This is an inter company billing document; Pricing takes place as normal)



Posting the goods receipt at the receiving Company (The material stock increases and an accounting document gets created)



Posting the invoice receipt at the receiving Company (The invoice is checked with reference to the purchase order)

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Procurement in IT Systems



Types of Procurement External vs. Internal Procurement (…Cntd) 

Internal Procurement Sometimes companies also need to record and monitor stock movements between its own entities e.g. production facilities.

Key activities:  Creating a stock transport order in the receiving entity  Generating a delivery document in the delivering entity  Picking the material in the delivering entity  Posting an issuing document in delivering entity  Posting a receipt document in receiving entity

SAP Implementation Guide When a client purchases the SAP, it comes in a CD very similar to any software that we buy off the shelf. When SAP is first installed, SAP comes with some standard set up. Example of those set up are company code 0001, plant 0001 etc. These setup do not necessary meet the client requirement. In the build phase of a project, SAP system is customized according to the requirement of the client which are identified in the design phase. In SAP, customizing is performed through the Implementation Guide (IMG). Note that customizing is different from master data or transactional data.

SAP Master Data Overview SAP R/3 operates “real time”, placing the responsibility of data integrity on all users.

Information in SAP is always current 

No time lag between data entry and data availability

Reports and data displays available online 

Reports can be run in foreground or background

Everyone has a critical role to play in maintaining “data integrity”

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

SAP Master Data Overview SAP R/3 operates using “real time” data that can be categorised as master or transactional data.

Master Data 

Basic informational data created centrally and used in nearly all applications



For example, a Vendor is data that is used in creating contracts, purchase orders, and payments



Remains constant over time, although some master data may need to be updated

Transactional Data 

Data associated with the processing of a business transaction



Specific for each transaction

SAP Master Data Overview



Types of Master Data in SAP

Vendor Master Data 

Unique repository of all the relevant information from the vendors.



It’s divided in three categories or views: 

General data: contains mostly the legal information from the vendor, for example address, legal name, ABN number, etc.



Company Code data: contains all the information related to a specific company code. For example: account information, etc.



Purchasing data: this is maintained for each purchasing Organization. For example the currency, incoterms, etc.

Purchasing Info Record 

This is vendor-specific data on a certain material. For example, delivery time and purchase price.

SAP Master Data Overview



Types of Master Data in SAP (…Cntd) Material Master Data It is an enterprise’s main source of material-specific data. It is used in all areas of logistics in the SAP R/3 system. Since different user departments within an enterprise work with one material, and each department enters different information relating to it, the data in a material master record is subdivided according to area of use. Each user department thus has its own view of a material master record. The data screens used to process material master records can be subdivided into the following types: 

Main data: these are the views for the individual user departments, such as basic data, materials planning, accounting, sales, purchasing, and so on.



Additional data: these are the views on which you find additional information such as alternative units of measure, material short descriptions, and consumption values. Purchasing data: this is maintained for each purchasing organization. For example the currency, incoterms, etc.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

SAP Master Data Overview When you create a purchasing document, SAP R/3 supports you with the data entry by providing you with the default values taken from existing master records.

Material Master

What is Material Master ? How is the Material master used in all the departments ? How is it useful in creating Purchase Orders?

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 Introduction

The material master record contains the information on all the materials that a company procures or produces, stores or sells. The material master record is a company’s main source of material specific data. It is used by all components in the R/3 logistics system.

Basic data

Purchasing

Materials planning

S&D

Stocks in Plant/ stor Loc

Work scheduling

Accounting

Material Master

 Introduction (…Contd) Integration of all material data in a single database, prevents the problem of data redundancy. Data contained in material master records is required for many functions within the R/3 logistics system, for example: Purchasing data for ordering Inventory management data for posting a goods movements and managing physical inventory Accounting data for material valuation MRP data for material requirements planning

Since the material master is used and maintained by different user departments, the material master is subdivided according to area of use, and thus each user department in a company has its own view of a material master record.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 Introduction (…Cntd) Some material views are valid for all organisational levels, while some are valid only for certain levels.

Data at client level is data valid for the whole enterprise (e.g. material number, material group, unit of measure, …) Data at plant level is valid within a plant and all storage locations belonging to that plant (e.g. purchasing data, forecasting data, work scheduling data, …) Data at storage location level is only valid for a particular storage location (e.g. storage bin description, picking area, …)

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 Material Master Record: Screens When creating or editing a material master data, the user goes through a number of screens. In the initial screen the user enters the material number, industry sector and material type. In the second screen the user specifies the user department views to be processed. The third screen prompts the user for organisational data. Material data is then entered in the data screens. Note: Screen sequence can be changed.

Data screens

Material Master

 Initial Screen The Industry Sector and Material Type fields on the initial screen are mainly control fields i.e. they control the screen sequence, views and fields in the data screens of the material master record. A number of different Industry Sectors and Material Types exist in standard SAP R/3, when companies need more they can define these in Customising according to their own requirements.

Material Types Industry Sectors

 Initial Screen • Material Type (…Cntd) Along with the plant, the material type determines a material's inventory management requirement; that is, whether the system updates quantity changes in the material master record or updates changes in value in the stock accounts in Financial Accounting.

The material type also determines which accounts are posted when a material is posted to stock or leaves the warehouse.

 Initial Screen • Industry Sector Selection Screen Chemical Industry

Control

Field selection

Pharmaceutical Ind. Like material type, the industry sector has a control function in SAP R/3 When you create a material master record, the industry sector defines:

which screens are displayed and in which order which industry specific fields are displayed in each screen In customizing , you can define new industry sectors and maintain field reference for field selection control according to your company- specific requirements. The Industry sector assigned to a material cannot be changed later.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 User Departments Views - Main Data (…Cntd) • Basic Data: On this data screen, the user enters data that is also used by other user departments • Classification: Classes allow companies to classify materials with the same characteristics. A material can be assigned to one or more classes. Classification data is valid for the whole company. • Accounting: Besides other accounting data, users normally enter data relevant to valuation in the current period here, and companies can manage accounting data on company code level or plant level. • Costing: Besides costing data, users can also define valuation data on this screen. This data is identical with that on the Accounting screen. In most cases, it will already exist on the Costing screen because it has already been entered on the Accounting screen. If it is entered on the Costing screen first, it will appear on the Accounting screen as default values that can be overwritten. Costing data is managed at plant level. Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 User Departments Views - Main Data (…Cntd) • Forecasting: On the Forecasting screen, users have the following options: Users can access the screens on which consumption values and forecast values are entered as a basis for the initial calculations. Users can directly execute an individual forecast for a material. Starting from the maintained forecast parameters, users can simulate the forecast in several dialog steps. The forecast values are updated only when the material master record is saved. The MRP parameters Reorder point and Safety stock, which are based on the forecast, are adjusted dynamically at the same time. Forecasting data is maintained on a plant level.

• Materials Requirement Planning (MRP): MRP is planned at plant level, however if users need to enter data specific to a storage location, they must also specify the storage location concerned. You must specify a storage location if you want a material to be included in storage location MRP. Storage locations are considered as independent units for MRP purposes. Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 User Departments Views - Main Data (…Cntd) • Purchasing: Not all purchasing data is plant-specific. As a result, the data displayed depends on whether the user enters a plant or not. • Stocks, Plant and Storage Location: After material master record has been created, users can select the following data screens in the Select View(s) dialog box for displaying the stocks held at a particular plant or storage location: Plant stock Storage location stock Other User Department Views: Sales Production Resources/Tools Quality Management Storage Work Scheduling Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Sales UOM = Carton

Material Master

 User Departments Views - Additional Data (…Cntd) • Additional EANs An International Article Number (EAN) (or Universal Product Code (UPC) in the USA) is an internationally standardized number uniquely identifying a material. It always refers to a specific unit of measure or type of packaging such as a pack of ten pieces or a box. For each unit of measure defined in a material master record, you can assign one or more EANs and specify packaging data (such as dimensions, volume, and gross weight).

• Document Management A material may have various documents such as drawings and photographs assigned to it. The system differentiates between these documents by means of the document type. If the company uses SAP’s document management system, you can manage documents and assign existing documents to a material in the material master record. Document data is managed at client level.

Prepared by : Raj Kumar .A SAP-MM QM CONSULTANT

Material Master

 User Departments Views - Additional Data (…Cntd) • Basic Data Texts, Inspection Texts, Internal Comments Text are stored at client level, and can be entered in many languages though only one text is allowed per language.

Basic data text This text can be used as per company’s requirement, for example, to store additional, general information on the material. Inspection text This text can be used to stipulate rules on the procedure to be followed for inspecting a material, or any special points to be observed. Internal comment This text can be used as per company’s requirement, for example, to store any specific points to be taken into consideration with regard to the material.

Material Master

 Extending Material Master Record If one user department has already stored data on a material in a material master record, and another user department wants to enter data on the same material, there is no need to create another material master record. Instead, the material master record is extended to include the information relevant to the user department. A material master record is also extended if the same user department wants it to include data for other organizational levels. Extend to different Extend Views
