Working with comments from Strategic Sourcing

A comment can be attached to an event header or to an event line. Comments attached at the header level do not default to lines for the selected event.

  1. Access Buyer > Event Creation.
  2. Select an event for which you want to add a comment.
  3. Click the Comments tab.
  4. From the Actions menu, select Create. Use the following guidelines to enter field values:
    Title

    Required. Type a title for the event comment.

    Comment

    Required. Type the comment text.

    Note: 

    The AGS transaction (exports content from the Comments field to a purchase order or vendor agreement) contains a maximum of 999 characters.

    It is recommended that comments contain fewer than 999 characters. Ensure that comments have been exported to the Purchase Order application.

  5. Click Save.

    After the event is awarded, the comment flows to a purchase order or vendor agreement output. Each comment type does not flow to each output type. Comments that display on an output are dependant on attachments to event headers or lines and the selected output type. For more information, see About comment types.
