The procurement type is preset by the material type in Customizing for the material master. If necessary, you have defined more precisely how the in-house
Direct procurement refers to obtaining
anything that’s required to produce an end-
product. For a manufacturing company, this
includes raw materials and components. For
a retailer, it includes any items purchased
from a wholesaler for resale to customers.

Indirect procurement typically involves


purchases of items that are essential for day-
to-day operations but don’t directly contribute
to the company’s bottom line. This can
include anything from office supplies and
furniture to advertising campaigns, consulting
services and equipment maintenance.

Goods procurement largely refers to the


procurement of physical items, but it can also
include items like software subscriptions.
Effective goods procurement generally relies
on good supply chain management practices.
It may include both direct and indirect
procurement.

Services procurement focuses on procuring


people-based services. Depending on the
company, this may include hiring individual
contractors, contingent labor, law firms or on-
site security services. It may include both
direct and indirect procurement.
