Understanding Federal Spending Regions

The Federal Government uses spending regions to track procure-to-pay activities by area or region. Spending regions are typically established by the procurement manager or accounts payable manager who is responsible for monitoring the procure-to-pay activities of the organization. Use the spending regions functionality to capture the appropriate region for both purchase order and voucher transactions. Spending regions are identified with a ChartField and its values are associated with a supplier's remit-to address.
