Business Term Definition
Material groups are grouped by segments. Segments are defined with category buyers and implemented group-wide, to share common ones whatever the system used (PF1_020 or WP1_400 or BP2_400 or WNP_400 or CONVERGENCE). "Segment" is the second level of the category taxonomy. (Segments are in fact categories, named in an old fashion way). |

This is achieved by using a three-level hierarchy consisting of domain, segment and material group. The domain and segment hierarchy is designed to be common and unique for vendors and items (goods and services). | Category Taxonomy |
