Publish Negotiation

Use the Publish Negotiation process to validate and publish a draft large negotiation.

When to Use

Use this process to validate and publish a draft negotiation. This process also generates negotiation invitation notifications to all the invited suppliers. Once published, suppliers can start viewing and submitting responses to the negotiation. This process can only be triggered from Oracle Sourcing when using large negotiations. Large negotiation must be enabled in the negotiation style.

Privileges Required

  • Submit Supplier Negotiation (PON_SUBMIT_SUPPLIER_NEGOTIATION_PRIV)
