      <Paragraph>If you define an
		operation as subcontracted in this session, and then later want to define it as
		a nonsubcontracted (internal) operation, you must use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0110m000" role="session">Production Planning (tisfc0110m000)</GUIRef> session to reassign a normal (internal) work center as
		a subcontracting work center.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>After you have defined
		subcontracting operations, you must create purchase orders for those operations
		in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc2250m000" role="session">Generate Subcontracting Purchase Orders (tisfc2250m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>If you regularly
		subcontract to a work center within your own organization but in a different <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#Company_tc" role="glossary">company</Link>, it is better to set
		up a <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000300" role="glossary">shared work center</Link> relationship, which avoids the need for purchase orders. For more information, refer to <Link href="/baanerp/ti/onlinemanual/000308" role="manual">Shared work centers</Link>.</Paragraph>
