Understanding JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement Management for Project Manufacturing

Procurement is the process of obtaining products and services from suppliers. It includes decisions about how much to purchase and when to purchase goods and services, the actual purchasing of goods and services, and the process of receiving the requested goods or services.

See “Understanding Procurement" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Procurement Management Implementation Guide.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement Management system integrates with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing to support production controlled items.

The system processes an order based on the items that you purchase and the supplier from whom you make the purchases. You can specify the items that you purchase from a supplier to create supplier and item relationships.

See “Setting Up Supplier Information" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Procurement Management Implementation Guide.

The process flow for Procurement Management for Project Manufacturing uses many of the same programs as JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement Management. The process flow consists of these steps:

  1. Enter purchase order (P4310 and P43101).

  2. Print purchase order (R43500).

  3. Print purchase receiver (R43510).

  4. Perform purchase order receipt (P4312).

  5. Perform voucher match (P4314).

You can associate a production number with production controlled items on a purchase order by:

  • Automatically pegging a purchase order with a production number through Material Requirements Planning (MRP).

  • Manually entering a blanket or purchase order.

  • Manually pegging a purchase order using the Production Number Reassignment program (P34404).

You can also use the Production Number Reassignment program to assign a new production number to replace a generic production number on a purchase order.

When entering purchase orders, purchase order receipts, and item ledger records, the system stores the production numbers in the appropriate system tables.
