Supplier Connection via Web Portal in SAP
With the Purchase module, business between buyer and supplier is made easy. As a web portal it is a communication interface between the purchaser and supplier, and provides all the important information required at a glance whilst simultaneously performing operational tasks.
Purchase offers simple and straightforward solutions for the following functions:
- Requests / offers
- Orders / confirmations
- Contracts
- Documents
- Deliveries
- Forecasting
- Quality Assurance and Inspection Lots
- Consignment Stock handling
- And much more
With the Request Generator, the purchase material items are selected based on various parameters so the system can process an inquiry more quickly and easily. This is made simple by ‘drag and drop’ functionality. Important documents for material items, such as CAD drawings are automatically linked to the request.
The module Price Comparison List selects all relevant submissions and related offers by status and maturity and presents them on a user Cockpit, from here the user can determine their next step, such as order cancellations or price improvements and the establishment of contracts can be commenced. Offers for submissions can be listed and rated. As a purchaser, you can immediately see who has the best deal, or you can create a list of favourites for ‘cherry-picking.
The feature WebService optimises the Web Service solution because it automates manual processes such as order confirmations and Quotes. Currently we offer the following functionality:
- Current list of all inquiries and orders and their current status
- Current list of all prepared documentation and downloads
- Submission of an order confirmation for an order
- Submission of a delivery
- Submission of a quote
Furthermore, the flow of information is clearly documented and transmission or editorial errors are immediately displayed. So you can ascertain whether all data has been transmitted and downloaded.
The module Response enables all of your suppliers to be connected to your system without a web portal or EDI. The module can be used stand-alone or add to our existing web portal purchase. You and your supplier can
- Submit offers and order confirmation and maintain data
- Send and confirm orders and their documents and
- monitor sent receipts.
Communication takes place securely through double authentication and through an individual and unique URL assignment. With Response you communicate with all your suppliers in the same way and ensure a standardized process. You leave administrative activities such as data maintenance of order confirmation or offer to the supplier and thus reduce your workload.
