Validate Negotiation

Use the Validate Negotiation process to validate a draft large negotiation.

When to Use

Use this process to check for any errors before publishing it. Once validated, buyers can publish the negotiation and status becomes active. This process can only be triggered from Oracle Sourcing when using large negotiations. Large negotiation must be enabled in the negotiation style.

Privileges Required

Specifications

Review these before setting up this scheduled process:

Specification	Description

Duration	Varies based on the total number of negotiation lines and the line level details (external cost factors, quantity-based price tiers, price breaks) in the negotiation.
