Automotive Aftermarket Supply Chain Management Workflow

Step 1: Receive Purchase Order

Type: Fill Checklist

The first step in the business workflow is Step 1: Receive Purchase Order. In this phase, the company receives a purchase order from a client or supplier, which typically includes details about the products or services to be delivered, quantities, and expected delivery dates. The purchase order serves as a formal agreement between the parties involved, outlining the terms of the transaction. The purchasing team reviews the purchase order for accuracy and completeness, ensuring that all necessary information is included. Any discrepancies or missing data are addressed with the client or supplier before proceeding. Once the purchase order has been verified, it is approved by the relevant stakeholders, such as management or procurement personnel. The approved purchase order then serves as a basis for further action, including processing the payment and initiating the production or delivery of the goods or services.
