Defining GPO Contracts
To define manufacturers, GPO manufacturers, rebates, definitions, and distributors, use the Manufacturer (MANUFACTURER), GPO Manufacturer (MFG_GPO), GPO Rebates (MFG_GPO_REBATE), GPO Definition (GPO_NAME), and GPO Distributor (MFG_GPO_SUPPLIER) components.
This section provides an overview of the GPO contract definition process.

To define GPO contracts:
On the Manufacturer page, define a manufacturer ID for each manufacturer of contract items.
Using the Supplier Information component, define each distributor as a PeopleSoft Supplier.
If you can buy directly from the manufacturer of the item, the manufacturer should also be defined as a supplier.
On the Define GPO page, define a GPO ID for each group purchasing organization.
On the Define GPO Manufacturer page, define each GPO contract with a GPO contract ID and contract details.
(Optional) On the Tier Requirements page, identify any tier requirements contained in the GPO contract.
On the GPO Distributor page, enter the GPO contract distributors (suppliers) and their markup percentages.
(Optional) On the Define GPO Rebates page, enter any GPO contract rebates received.
In PeopleSoft Purchasing, two ways are available to manage vendor rebates for GPO Contracts:
Manually record the vendor rebates received from the manufacturer using the GPO Rebates page.
This is for reporting purposes only.
Use the vendor rebate functionality to automatically manage and process vendor rebates for GPO contracts.
If you decide to use the vendor rebate functionality, using the GPO Rebates page to enter vendor rebates is not necessary. The vendor rebates for the GPO contract are managed and processed within the vendor rebate functionality.
Note: The vendor rebates functionality won't copy the vendor rebates back to the GPO Rebates page because the rebates are already managed within the vendor rebates functionality. If you still want to use the GPO Rebates page in addition to the vendor rebate functionality, you can, but you will have to manually update the GPO Rebates page.
Use the Define GPO Manufacturer (define group purchasing organization manufacturer) page (MFG_GPO) to define GPO contracts.

Select this check box if you can buy items directly from the manufacturer. The system creates a record on the GPO distributor table for the manufacturer, with default markup of 0. |

Note: You must select the Buy from this Manufacturer check box and select a supplier ID for the vendor rebate functionality to be handled correctly for this manufacturer. If you do not specify the manufacturer's supplier ID, you can still optionally manage vendor rebates with the distributor's supplier ID (the supplier on the purchase order). |
