Redwood: Respond to Requirements for Supplier Profile Attributes

Suppliers can now respond to business classification requirements within their negotiation responses using the enhanced Redwood supplier response flow in Oracle Supplier Portal. Category Managers can already add predefined questions mapped to the supplier profile attributes in the business classification category as requirements in negotiations. With this update, suppliers can provide these classifications as part of their response using the Redwood experience, ensuring that all compliance and diversity related information is captured during the negotiation process.

This gives buyers access to the most complete and up-to-date supplier data when evaluating negotiation responses. It improves the ability to assess compliance, diversity, and classification criteria, and helps fulfill regulatory and reporting obligations related to supplier diversity. By having all necessary information available within the negotiation itself, buyers can make more informed decisions and better identify suppliers that align with organizational goals.
