View Changes on Supplier Portal

As a supplier portal user, you can view the changes for which you’re granted access.

Here are some of the side tabs available on change orders:

• General Information - the default or cover page of a change order.

  The General Information tab displays the cover page details including the trading partner reference attributes like Customer, Supplier, Manufacturer, and Source. The trading partner reference attributes exposed to the business user are displayed in the supplier portal.

• Affected Objects - items and structures (including components) that are the subject of the proposed change or modification. Items can contain problem report, or corrective action.

  To view the structure, open the affected object and click the Structure tab.

• Attachments - text or graphic files, or URL, with more information about the change order. As a supplier portal user, you can only view attachments for which you’re assigned permissions.

Content Presence Indicators on Affected Object Structure

Content presence indicators on the structure tab of the affected object provide quick access to changes and quality-related data.

Here's what you need to know:

• Blue dot icons on structure component rows indicate the presence of pending changes and quality-related data. You can click the blue dot to navigate to the corresponding details in the side tab.
• For quality objects, the blue dot appears if there is at least one problem report, or corrective action in any workflow status against any item revision. Note that the object can be pending or released.

  When you click the blue dot on quality objects, only problem reports and corrective actions appear in the Quality side tab. You can only see and navigate to those objects for which you have access.
