What does a Purchaser do?
A Purchaser is in charge of maintaining adequate amounts of materials for their organization. The Purchaser is actively involved in the responsibility of negotiating prices for materials and orders. To access the Procure module or be a Purchaser, you need to be granted access by a Superuser and its advanced license. Learn how to apply a role to a user.
