General business processes play a role for Sales and Distribution and for Materials Management and Production. These processes are based on the R/3 Standard and have been enhanced in order to meet the special requirements of the Apparel and Footwear industry. AFS gives you the possibility of taking the AFS Specific data (grid values and categories) into account at every level of the process and therefore of including them in the entire process.

The following actions trigger such general business processes:

• Purchase-to-Order
• Make-to-Order
• Third-Party Order Processing
• Stock Transport Order with SD Processing

You can find information on these topics in the documentation of Sales and Distribution and Materials Management.
