Question
How can my supplier re-confirm PO Lines as they approach their due date? We often issue orders months in advance and as the due date approaches we ask the supplier to reconfirm the order details. How can I do this in SourceDay?
Answer
Buyers can now enable Radar Confirmation that will require suppliers to confirm order lines once they move to the Radar tab. Once this is feature is enabled by the Buyer several pieces of automation will follow:
1. Suppliers will receive an email notification requesting a Confirmation.
2. The PO Line will be added to the Supplier's Update tab (and the Buyers Awaiting Response Tab).
3. The supplier will receive reminders on this PO Line until the supplier Confirms the order line. Once the supplier confirms the order the reminders (called Tabbed Based Recurring Notifications) will end. To review and adjust your Tabbed Based Recurring Notifications click here.
How Do I Do It?
The Admin for the Buyer Company can enable Radar Confirmation under their Account Settings.
1. From External Vendors scroll the table to the right until Radar Confirmation appears and click the checkbox. (You can also update the timeframe when orders move to Radar under Radar).
