How can I record a supplier acknowledgment for a purchasing document?
As a supplier, your formal acknowledgment may be required before a purchasing document becomes legally binding and can be implemented.
You can use the Supplier Portal work area to view purchasing documents and change orders awaiting acknowledgment, and record your response. New acknowledgment requests also show up as Worklist items on the portal, and in email notifications. To record an acknowledgment, use the Acknowledge action on the document.
A buyer for the buying organization can use the Purchase Agreements and Purchase Orders work areas to monitor purchasing documents awaiting acknowledgment. Acknowledgment requests past their due date are presented as Watchlist items. Overdue acknowledgment requests also appear in the Requiring Attention infolet on the work area Overview pages. A buyer can record a supplier's offline acknowledgment on the supplier's behalf, using the Acknowledge action on the document.
