Supplier group setup for supplier portal

The General tab

• In the Supplier Setup section, if Allow Duplicate Tax Information is No, the supplier receives an error if the Tax ID that they provide already exists for another supplier. If Yes With Warning is selected, then no error will occur for the supplier if they provide and existing tax ID, but they will receive a warning.
• The Commodity Registration Level field controls the number of levels deep a supplier contact can associate with a commodity code. This is regardless of how many levels commodity codes are defined at on the buyer side. For example, if commodity registration level is set to Level 1, then a supplier contact can only associate with commodity code 005, and not 005-21.
• If Require Commodity Code is selected and a supplier or supplier contact does not associate themselves with at least one commodity code, then they will receive a warning. The warning occurs at the end of the registration process indicating that setup is not complete. A commodity code is required.

  Supplier contacts whose setup is not complete cannot respond to events. Additionally, they cannot be validated by the Infor client when the validation process is performed. Contracts also cannot be activated for contacts whose setup is not complete.

• If Display GTIN and GLN In Supplier Portal is selected, then those fields are displayed on appropriate forms.
• In the Supplier Registration section, the Terms and Conditions that are provided are displayed when a supplier initially registers. These terms and conditions are related to the supplier registration, not to any specific event or contract.
• In the Display During Registration section, these fields are used to determine whether the supplier is allowed to provide the information during registration. If commodity codes are required, then the commodity codes field must be selected.
