Direct Sending
When releasing an order of subcontract goods including supplies, the supplies may be directly sent from the purchase source, from which the company buys the supplies, to the subcontractor instead of providing them from its own site, which is called Direct Sending. In addition, when delivering purchased parts or subcontract goods, it is also called Direct Sending to directly deliver them to the process, which will use the items. In this case, the payment processing is usually performed in the same way as that of the case when the supplies are send to the subcontractor via the company.
