Enter Purchase Groups

Explanation

This activity is used to enter a purchase group for grouping purchase parts. These purchase groups later function as a statistical tool to obtain statistical reports in queries and printouts, as well as control types for posting control. For no-number part lines, purchase groups determine the posting rules.

You can include the site-specific customs statistic number for a non-inventory part in the purchase group. It is, however, not possible to attach several site-specific customs statistic numbers to a given purchase group.
