Create New Round

Use the Create New Round process to create a new round for a large negotiation.

When to Use

Use this process to create a new round to a negotiation. Once the job is successfully completed, a draft new round gets created. You can update the draft and publish the new round. This process can only be triggered from the Oracle Sourcing application when using large negotiations. Large negotiation must be enabled in the negotiation style.

Privileges Required

  • Create Supplier Negotiation (PON_CREATE_SUPPLIER_NEGOTIATION_PRIV)
