Materials Flow Through the System

Several modules interact to form the basic materials flow throughout the system.

A simple outline of the steps involved in this interaction, are as follows:

1. Requisition module - Create Requisition (and perform any Requisition Authorization).
2. Requisition module - Enter Quote information (received from the Vendor).
3. Orders module - Create an Order for the part (for example, a Purchase Order).
4. Receiving module - Receive the part (and perform any required Receiving Inspections).
5. Inventory module - Use the Inventory Transaction option to manage the part.

Please refer to the appropriate modules’ chapter for additional related information.
