Purchasing organizations with low process costs enable their employees to order required goods quickly, easily and independently. But how can this be done in a process-compliant manner with a low Maverick buying rate? With the simple system rights management, you can create an individual rights profile for each of your employees. This makes it easy for employees to order and at the same time keep process costs to a minimum in all departments.
To do this, you can assign articles or vendors to users according to any criteria. In this way, every user sees only relevant articles and catalogues for their needs in their ordering environment. In addition, you can set up approval processes. Manual approvals can be triggered by order volumes or by suppliers. If required, these can also be created in several levels.
