Explanation
A subcontracting process involves sending components to a vendor who provides a service and returns an assembled or processed product. Some steps that can be part of this process are:
Post subsequent adjustment of component consumption, which means that you can correct the actual quantity of components consumed by the vendor after receiving the finished product.
Create an outbound delivery for components to be provided, which means that you can ship the components from your plant to the vendor's location using the shipping functionality.
Purchase components for direct delivery to the subcontractor, which means that you can order components from another vendor and have them delivered directly to the subcontractor without storing them in your own plant.
