Access the intake request from the negotiation

Redwood Platform

Use the Intake Request number on negotiation pages to trace the negotiation back to the intake request that created it. When the outcome of an intake request is a sourcing negotiation, the originating request reference appears in the draft negotiation on Overview and Lines and Review and Publish, and in the View Negotiation. You can select the number to open the intake request details when you have the required access.

The originating intake request number also remains available when you create an amendment or create a new round. The reference continues to point to the original intake request, helping you preserve traceability across negotiation changes. The intake request number appears only when the negotiation is derived from an intake request whose outcome is Sourcing Negotiation.
