Understanding Self-Service Response to Requests for Quotes

Self-service functionality enables suppliers to enter data directly into the procurement system, which can be very beneficial in areas such as responding to a request for quote. Authorized suppliers can access the designated website and enter their response directly into the system, which reduces transcription errors and possible confusion that can occur in other methods of communication from the supplier.

Suppliers use their item number or can enter the order number to review information for an order, such as original quantity, units relieved, amount relieved, and original amount.
