Hi,
A purchase order with a validity period and limits for the simplified procurement of materials or services.
A longer-term blanket purchase order enables you to procure different materials or services from a vendor up to a specified maximum value. The nature of the materials or services is such that the cost and administrative effort involved in processing individual purchase orders are too high in relation to their value.
A blanket purchase order contains only a short text and a validity period. It does not contain specific materials or services.
Blanket purchase orders have the item category B and document type FO.
You do not need to know the account assignment for the individual materials or services required at the time of ordering. You can enter it during the invoice verification process. If you entered account assignment data in the purchase order, you can change it at the time of invoice verification. (For example, you can change single account assignment to multiple account assignment.)
A goods receipt or the entry and acceptance of services performed are not necessary in the case of blanket purchase orders. Provided that the value limit is not exceeded, invoices can be posted directly with reference to the PO.
Hope can help you!
Good day
Tao
