Hello,
I do understand the need for attaching a Procurement category to an Inventory item if PR is mandatory to purchase stocked items as below.
"Because the Procurement category is mandatory in PR you must link those stocked items to a category' - Please validate this.
On the other hand, I am wondering the actual purpose of linking products to a Procurement category when users need place a PR for a non-stock item. Such as Accommodation or Computers.
I have seen an environment where different Hotel Rooms are setup as products (Service/ Item) and linked these to Accommodation procurement category.
Would there be a valid reason to go this route?
My understanding is that if you create a PR for a Service/ item for company usage - these need only procurement categories. no need to link an item. Users can add this expense details (Such as Hotel name) in the PO line text to show on the confirmation.
Can someone validate my understanding here please?
Thanks!
