Definicja procurement process

A process in Product Cost Controlling that calculates and displays the costs incurred in the process of procuring materials.

A procurement process identifies such a process for one or more materials. A process can produce multiple materials simultaneously (such as when co-products are involved), while a procurement alternative represents the procurement of a single material. Depending on the process category, the procurement process can be single-level or multilevel. For example, "purchase order" is single-level, while "production" is multilevel. The level of detail of a procurement process can be determined through the choice of controlling level.
