Oracle Supplier Portal

The Supplier Portal page serves as the landing page for Oracle Supplier Portal and provides quick access to tasks and reports relevant to you.

The content that you can access in the Supplier Portal is controlled by your job role and your data access settings.

The Supplier Portal page includes an integrated search facility to find particular orders, agreements, shipments, and so on, a Tasks list from which to access all Supplier Portal tasks and reports, and many dynamically updated infolets. Infolets provide interactive graphic readouts of critical real time information, such as supplier transaction reports.

Supplier Portal Search

You can directly search for specific items such as orders, agreements, and shipments. Select the type of object to search for in the Search drop-down list, and provide appropriate search criteria, such as an order number, in the search field, and click Search.

Suppliers can export their negotiation search results and response data to the Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet from Supplier Portal.

Tasks

Select tasks and reports from the Tasks list on the Supplier Portal page. Links are included for all activities you need to perform in Supplier Portal such as managing shipments and deliverables and creating invoices. Updates to your company profile can be initiated by clicking Manage Profile. See Supplier Profile Change Request for more information.

Monitoring Actions and Activities

Graphic infolets provide an interactive readout of real time information. You can see recent activities and news, as well as view the items requiring attention, which you access by drilling down into the infolet. See the common topics on infolets for more information.

Include BI Reports

When you want to show reports on the Supplier Portal, for example, you want to report the supplier activities in a negotiation, you can use the Page Composer based personalization to add a report. For more information on Page Composer, see Oracle Applications Cloud Configuring and Extending Applications. After you've created a BI report, you can add it to the Supplier Portal page in the form of a link that points to the report that suppliers can open. To construct a report URL, see the topic Accessing Reports via a URL in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Report Designer's Guide for Oracle Analytics Publisher.
