From Release 3.0 onwards, procurement via pipeline is supported.
You can store prices for pipeline procurement in separate purchasing info
records. Pipeline info records have the info record category 'P'.
When creating a new purchasing info record, you can set the "Pipeline" indicator.
If several vendors supplying pipeline materials exist in the system, one of them can be defined as the "fixed vendor" in the source list.
Please also refer to the Release Note "Pipeline handling" in MM Inventory Management.
