Purchase Process Island

Field Description
Purchase Process No. This field shows the number of the purchase process of which the current purchase order is part.
Description In this field, you enter the name of the purchase process. The name is assigned to the purchase process when you create a purchase process from the action “Create new purchase process.”
Purchase Transaction Type Use this field to select the type of the purchase transaction.
Access Level In this field you can specify the name of an access level to apply to the purchase process to which the current purchase order is assigned. You only have access to the current purchase process and its requisition, requests for quote, and purchase orders if you have been assigned to this level or a level above this in the User Access Levels window.

This access control ensures that in other windows, you can only refer to information relating to purchase processes to which you have access, and you can only see information about purchase processes to which you have access. Please note that this access control model only applies if the standard access control configuration has not been changed in your Maconomy system. If it has, the access to purchase processes and its requisitions, requests for quote, and purchase orders may depend on other factors. For further information about the standard access control configuration and access control in a multi-company model, please see “Introduction to the Access Control System” in the Set-Up module.
