Global Requisition System (GRS)
Global Requisition System (GRS) lets you create multiple-line purchase requisitions and route them through the approval process. Based on the type of purchase, the cost, and the requestor’s department, the system determines which individuals are authorized to approve the requisition. Requisitions can include both manually entered lines and lines created when MRP planned purchase orders are approved. Optionally, GRS sends e-mail messages throughout the requisition life cycle to communicate status and required actions to originators, end users, reviewers, approvers, and buyers.

Purchasing
Purchasing provides comprehensive support for procuring components, materials, and supplies in a centralized or distributed environment. Features include:

Supplier Consignment Inventory
Supplier Consignment Inventory extends the purchase order process by providing new transactions to receive material and identify it as consigned. The Supplier Consignment Inventory module lets you plan, order, receive, stock, track, and report supplier-consigned inventory using an automated system that reconciles inventories between suppliers and customers. Receiver matching and accounts payable (AP) transactions are deferred until the inventory is used. Customer use includes transfer, shipping, manufacturing, or distribution to its own customers.

Supplier Performance
The Supplier Performance module enables manufacturers to monitor the performance of their internal and external suppliers. Depending on your manufacturing environment, you can customize the way your system collects performance data as well as how you report performance metrics. You can create your own data collection points or use the ones predefined in the system.

Legal Documents
Use purchasing legal documents functions to support various inventory movement documents that are legally required in different countries.
