VMI workflowManufacturerSuppliers23411.The manufacturer approves the purchasing terms with suppliers,including the commonly agreed inventory responsibility and maintenance scheme.2.The manufacturer sends product activity data to the supplier.This product activity is based on warehouse movement of product consumed at the assembly line level.3.Based on the agreed inventory maintenance scheme,the supplier edits,approves and releases the suggested purchase order.4.The manufacturer approves this purchase order and send it to the supplier.8Consolidation and Loading Center is commonly used to
