Define PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing-specific user preferences and defaults. |
Use the User Preferences - Strategic Sourcing page (OPR_DEF_TBL_SS) to define PeopleSoft Strategic Sourcing-specific user preferences and defaults.
Navigation:
Click the Strategic Sourcing link on the User Preferences page.
This example illustrates the fields and controls on the User Preferences - Strategic Sourcing page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
Use this page to set up permissions and defaults for the selected user, including whether he or she can create buy, sell, or RFI events, event authorizations, copy from transactions, sourcing constraint permissions, and sourcing template permissions.
If you select the Award Events option in the Event Authorizations region, you must select at least one Award Type option. The user will have access to create only the documents selected here. Options include Purchase Order, PO Contract, General Contract, and Single Release PO Contract.
Note: To award purchase orders or contracts, users must have access on the User Preferences - Procurement page to create contracts and purchase orders. If the Strategic Sourcing business unit is set up to allow suppliers to be created from bidders upon award, users must also have access to enter and approve suppliers on the Procurement - Supplier Processing Authority page.
