Creating Info Records for Subcontracting Products 

Use

When a buyer creates a subcontract order, the system reads the labor charge from an info record. For this reason, you must create an info record that specifies how much the subcontractor charges to assemble a subcontracting product.

For generic information about info records, see Purchasing Info Records (MM-PUR-VM).

¡        The subcontractor’s labor charge (on the Conditions screen)

¡        The GR-based IV flag (Goods Receipt-Based Invoice Verification), on the Purch. Organization Data 1 screen

This flag means that when a buyer creates a subcontract order for this product, the system automatically flags the order for goods receipt-based invoice verification. This flag is required for consumption-based offsetting to work properly.
