PeopleSoft Supplier Contract Management

If you have PeopleSoft Supplier Contract Management installed, you can search and associate clauses and contract agreement codes with bid factors used in sourcing events. For awarded buy events, PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing creates contracts directly in PeopleSoft Supplier Contract Management.

PeopleSoft Manufacturing and PeopleSoft Engineering

PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing can base buy and sell events on items from PeopleSoft Engineering BOMs and PeopleSoft Manufacturing BOMs.

PeopleSoft Supply Planning

PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing can base buy and sell events on items from PeopleSoft Supply Planning planned orders.

PeopleSoft Purchasing

PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing can base buy events on items from PeopleSoft Purchasing requisitions, purchase orders, and contracts. For awarded buy events, PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing creates contracts or purchase orders directly in PeopleSoft Purchasing.

PeopleSoft Asset Management

PeopleSoft Asset Management provides assets for sell events.

For analyzed and awarded sell events, PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing passes awards to PeopleSoft Asset Management to record the proceeds from the sale of the asset. PeopleSoft Asset Management then integrates with PeopleSoft Billing to bill the customer for the sale.

PeopleSoft One Procurement

You can use PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing to create and manage sourcing events and to integrate the awards into PeopleSoft One Procurement.

When awarding a buy event to an external purchasing system, the system creates an outbound purchase order message at the time of the award. No sourcing information is passed into PeopleSoft Purchasing. An inbound message from PeopleSoft One provides PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing with the purchase order ID number from the external system for tracking purposes.

Third-Party Bid Management Systems

PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing enables users to post events and subsequent changes to third-party bid management systems, and it can send event cancellation notices to the third-party systems. Bidders created in third-party systems can be sent to PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing to be defined as Sourcing bidders. Third-party systems can send bid responses to PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing, and PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing can send post-award information to third-party systems for events originally posted to the third-party systems.
