Resolving Disputes Using Instant Messaging
PeopleSoft eSettlements supports instant messaging from Yahoo, Sametime Connect, and America Online. To take advantage of this functionality, you must set up both the buyer and supplier for instant messaging capability on their respective registration pages.
During buyer registration, the buyer sets up the roles and user IDs (in both the buying and selling organizations) that receive dispute schedule email notifications.
This section discusses how to use instant messaging to resolve invoice disputes.
