Shopping Cart Document Types
When creating a Shopping Cart, the SRM Requisitioner selects the Document Type based on the goods or services ordered. The document type, in turn, controls the type of Purchase Order (PO) created after the Shopping Cart is approved. This Document Type setting also determines the path of approvals required before the Shopping Cart can be converted into a PO.
