Redwood: Supplier Qualification Management Landing Page

The new landing page enables supplier qualification managers to quickly access their latest qualifications and navigate to common tasks. Monitor qualification operations and performance by adding your own key performance indicators (KPIs) and data visualizations for better decision making. As an internal responder, use the redesigned pages to quickly access questionnaires and action plan tasks requiring your attention.

When you sign in to Oracle Fusion Cloud Procurement you'll see a new tile, Supplier Qualification (New), to launch the redesigned landing page. You can still access the classic landing page using the Supplier Qualification tile.
