Supplier Creation Post Registration Request Approval

After the registration request is approved and the registration approval notifications are sent, the application automatically creates the supplier in the Supplier Master.

This list describes the Supplier creation process:

  • The supplier number is assigned from the next sequential number, maintained in Supplier Numbering setup.
  • User accounts requested for any contacts entered on the registration are sent to Oracle Fusion Identity Management for processing. After a user account is provisioned, a notification is sent to the contact containing the login details for access to the Oracle Supplier Portal application.
  • If the newly created supplier has a business relationship of spend authorized, a separate spend authorization approval request is started upon creation of the supplier. This additional approval review ensures the supplier record is ready for transaction processing.Unless the spend authorization request is approved, the supplier’s business relationship is maintained as None. In case the spend authorization request is rejected, you can manually promote the supplier for spend triggering the spend authorization review process.
  • After the spend authorization request is approved, a supplier site is created for each address in the procurement BU for which the registration request was created. The address name provided in the registration request is used as the site name. The site purposes are derived from the address purposes.
  • A site assignment is automatically created for every client BU having both requisitioning and payables invoicing business functions that are serviced by the procurement BU for which the registration request was created. Site assignments aren't created for sites with Site Purpose of Sourcing Only.

If you don't want to have site assignments created automatically, you can deactivate this feature. In the Setup and Maintenance work area use the Configure Supplier Registration and Profile Change Request task in the Suppliers functional area. In the Configure Supplier Registration and Profile Change Request page, deselect the Autocreate site assignments for spend authorized suppliers check box.
