Considerations for Including a Public Shopping List in a Content Zone

Control which public shopping lists a user can see by associating them to content zones.

Individual items on a public shopping list can have content security restrictions by agreement and category specified that prevent visibility to a user even though the user has access to it.

Considerations for Including a Public Shopping List in a Content Zone

On the Shopping List page in Oracle Self Service Procurement, public shopping lists will be available to user if the following are true:

• There are public shopping lists associated with the content zones accessible to the user.

• The procurement business unit on the public shopping list is a procurement business function provider for the requisitioning business unit selected for shopping in the user's preference.

• The public shopping list is effective. A public shopping list is effective if the start date is equal to or earlier than today's date, and the end date is equal to or later than today's date.

Then each item is checked to see if the items are available in the requisitioning business unit that the preparer is currently shopping in.

For agreement items, the requisitioning business unit assignment on the agreement will determine if an agreement item will be displayed, that's, an item will be displayed in a requisitioning BU if the agreement has been assigned to the requisitioning BU. The agreement and the agreement lines must be open.

Master Items are checked to see if the item is enabled for the deliver-to organization derived from the deliver-to location specified in the requisition preferences.

Content zones will also be applied on the public shopping list items. A preparer can only see items from the aggregated content zones they have access to.

If the public shopping list header is available in a requisitioning BU, but no items are applicable, then the public shopping list will be displayed without any items.
