Description

Calculate New Discount

Click to calculate the new discount based on the parameters entered.

Accept Proposal

Click to accept the proposal. The system directly updates applicable invoices that are contained within the proposal with the new terms and due dates. The system sets the proposal status to Accepted, which means it can no longer be modified, and sends an email notification back to the buyer that the offer was accepted.

Deny Proposal

Click to deny the proposal. If you deny the proposal, you must enter comments. The comments are included in the email notification to the buyer with a reason for the denial. If denied, the system updates the offer status to Denied. The supplier can modify the terms, due date, expiration date, or a combination of these fields and resubmit the proposal to the buyer. The system sets the proposal status to pending if the supplier modifies the proposal and resubmits it to the buyer.
