Implementing Online Supplier Registration

PeopleSoft’s Supplier Onboarding is a self-service web application designed to provide suppliers, prospective suppliers, or internal users acting on their behalf with configurable, online access to registration functionality and provides a framework for supplier onboarding in these PeopleSoft Source to Settle applications:

• eSettlements

• eSupplier Connection

• Payables

• Services Procurement

• Strategic Sourcing

• Purchasing

• eProcurement

Existing suppliers can access Supplier Onboarding’s online registration pages to add new user accounts. And prospective suppliers can register online as new bidders or new suppliers using pages customized to collect comprehensive bidder or supplier data. External access to online registration pages can be set up to be public or by email invitation only.

Depending on the approval rules settings, new registration requests or new user account requests may be routed for approval using Approval Framework. In addition, registration instructions and duplicate checking options defined at the system level can also be overridden by definitions at the template level for a specific registration use.

System setup also includes establishing a master set of profile questions, which can be selected and associated with individual registration templates, for use with online registration for new suppliers or new bidders. Profile questions are configurable attributes for capturing additional information during the registration process.
