Purchasing Document types

Hi all,

I'd like to understand the main use case and main difference of following document types which are widely used in Procurement:

1. Framework Orders (FO)

2. Scheduling Agreements (SA)

3. Outline Agreement (SAP Contract)

3. Normal Purchase Orders (NB)

4. Purchase Info Record (PIR)

5. Source List (SL)

It would be interesting to understand major differences (e.g. Good Receipt required for one doc type vs. not required for another document type) on similar document types (e.g. FO vs. SA vs. Outline Agreement). Additional, I’m interested to understand the specific characteristics, such as which information is available (e.g. which information is available in the Purchase Info Record which is not yet available in Master Data) and to hear about some typical use cases for the different document types (e.g. mainly bulk materials like sand & gravel are procured via Scheduling Agreements).

I assume that this information is already available somewhere, but could not find it in an aggregated / comparison list. Could you help me find or create such an overview?

Thanks!

Oliver
