Bestellwesen

The ordering process encompasses the creation and dispatch of a formal order to the selected supplier. This order represents a binding requirement for goods or services and has contractual effect. In practice, the order is sent either by email or via an e-procurement system and contains all relevant order data such as article numbers, quantities, and prices.
