Challenge 7:
Purchase Order

PreviousOverviewNext

Welcome to the SAP Purchase Order Use Case Page

The Purchase Order process in SAP helps companies add demanded products into orders without them being in stock yet. The process usually starts with an requirements email about a certain material that has to be ordered from a supplier. That email contains the material and supplier number which will be extracted.

These extracted numbers will be used during the purchase order process.


As not everyone is familiar with SAP (and it is complex), you can follow the step by step process described in the area below (below the extracted email data).
