Purchase by Proxy Overview
For reporting purposes, items purchased by proxy appear as though they were purchased by the user. The purchase is listed on the user's Order History page.
If an inventory purchase is used, it is the administrator's responsibility to ensure the user has the inventory permission. If the user does not have the inventory permission, they cannot assign the inventory training.
