Oracle Purchasing
The purchasing process flow within the Procure to Pay business flow focuses on procurement activities from the request of goods and services to their eventual receipt.
• Route transactions according to your approval structure. Approval authorization limits are defined by amount, charge account, item category, and location. For documents that require your approval, you can review and approve transactions on-line. Also, you can see the full transaction detail and review the action history before you approve a transaction.
• View Approval Status. Purchasing automatically displays the approval status of your transaction and informs you whether it is Approved, Cancelled, In Process, Incomplete,Pre-Approved, Rejected, or Returned. You know where your transaction is within this flow at all times.
• Automatically generate distribution accounts. Purchasing uses Account Generator to enter the distribution automatically whenever possible.• Provide attachments as notes on transaction headers and lines.

In the attached document about linking PO with Adv pricing, it is mentioned that Item/Supplier Sourcing rule has to be linked with Contract. In the Price List screen, are we not required to mention that particular contract number as qualifier?
