Using the Sourcing Skill

The Sourcing skill is part of the Supplier Digital Assistant. A Skill is a program that simulates interaction with a user. The Sourcing skill allows users to quickly search for their information such as Invited Bid Events, Events Pending Award, and Awarded Events.

The Sourcing skill uses Oracle Digital Assistant (ODA) to interact with users to perform certain tasks. For more information about ODA, see Using Oracle Digital Assistant.
