A.1 Understanding Supplier Self-Service Programs

The supplier self-service portlets, which were delivered in previous releases of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, are available for your use, though they function somewhat differently from the SRM portlet.

The following table lists the supplier self-service portlets and their associated applications:

Supplier Self-Service Portlet	Associated Application
SSS Quote Status	Self Service Quote Response Entry (P4334SS)
SSS Search	Self-Service - Supplier Payment Inquiry (P04111)
SSS Supplier Alerts	Self Service - Purchase Order Inquiry (P4310SS)
SSS Supplier Order Status	Self Service - Purchase Order Inquiry (P4310SS)
SSS Supplier Performance	Self-Service Supplier Analysis Summary (P43230SA)
SSS Tasks	Self Service - Update Address Book Record (P01012SS)

A.2 Setting Processing Options for Supplier Self-Service Programs

This section discusses how to set processing options for:

The Self-Service - Supplier Payment Inquiry program (P04111) and the Self Service - Purchase Order Inquiry program (P4310SS) are used by the SRM portlet, so the processing options for those programs are documented in the setup chapter for that portlet. Also, the Self Service - Update Address Book Record program (P01012SS) is documented in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Address Book Implementation Guide.
