Setting up item price requests
To set up item price request functionality, you must add items to item categories using the back office Items form and then associate vendors with the item categories using the Item Categories form or Vendors form. This should be done in all sites in the Vendor Portal site group.
With this information set, users can enter an item price request using the Item Price Requests form, or create the request from an existing planned order or PO requisition line. When an item price request is made, only vendors tied to the same category or categories with which that item is associated will see the request on the portal.
You can also set up notifications for item price request functionality. See the section about setting up event notifications.
