Sub contracting Business Process

Subcontracting process involves sending raw components to a  subcontractor, or let purchase component and let vendor directly delivery component  to subcontractor for specific manufacturing processes, and receiving the value-added  finished material back into inventory
A subcontract purchase requisition is either generated via the Material Requirements  Planning (MRP) process or manually by a requestor. A buyer validates the accuracy of  the purchase requisition and converts it into a purchase order. The purchase order is  subject to approval based on predefined parameters prior to being issued to a vendor.
Component can be receipt into your own storage location or vendor can delivery to your  subcontractor inventory.
The consumption of sent components is recorded upon receipt of the value-added  finished material. The vendor sends the invoice for the services provided which is paid  during the normal payment cycle
