What is the use of Purchasing Info record

It helps to define vendor specific information for a material. The following information can be kept in a info record;

·         Current and future prices and conditions (example freight and discounts etc)

·         Delivery data (over/under del tolerances)

·         Vendor data (contact person, mat description at vendor)

·         Last PO

·         Texts (internal info text, PO text)

When creating PO, data from info record gets copied into it, also contains data at P.Org and Plant level.

Info records can be created manually or updated automatically from quotation, purchase order or outline agreement via “info update indicator”
