Award Supplier Response

Use the Award Supplier Response process to award the entire negotiation to a single supplier response.

When to Use

Use this process to award the entire negotiation to a single supplier response. Once the process is completed, the new updated award decision is saved, award progress percent and savings are re-calculated accordingly. This process can only be triggered from the Oracle Sourcing application when using large negotiations. Large negotiation must be enabled in the negotiation style.
