What are the types of info records?

Answer Posted / aditya parakh

You can create purchasing info records for different
procurement types as follows:

Standard, Subcontracting, Pipeline, Consignment You use this
component if you wish to store information on a vendor and a
material as master data at purchasing organization or plant
level.

Standard
-------------
A standard info record contains information for standard
purchase orders.
The info records can be created for materials and services
with and without master records.

Subcontracting
-------------------
A subcontractor info record contains ordering information
for subcontract orders.
For example, if you subcontract the assembly of a component,
the subcontractor info record would include the vendor's
(subcontractor's) price for assembling the component.

Pipeline
-------------
A pipeline info record contains information on a vendor's
commodity that is supplied through a pipeline or pipes
(oil or water) or by similar means (electricity through the
mains).
The info record contains the vendor's price for the
consumption of such commodities by the buyer
("pipeline withdrawals"). You can store withdrawal/usage
prices for different validity periods.

Consignment
-----------------
A consignment info record contains information on a material
that vendors keep available at their own cost on the
orderer's premises.
The info record contains the vendor's price for withdrawals
by the orderer from consignment stock.
As in the case of the pipeline info record, you can store
prices for different validity periods.
