Initiating a change request

A change request can be initiated by a supplier using the Initiate change request option.

Note: This option is displayed on the Orders page only if:
  • The Acknowledgment status of the purchase order is set to Accepted.
  • A reason code is specified in the Change reason code field.
  • An active change request is not associated with the Purchase Order.

You can modify the price, quantity or delivery date based on the settings defined in the Purchase Order Change Request Templates (tcclb2107m000) session.

The supplier can use these options on the Order details page:

  • Cancel order: Enables you to cancel the purchase order.
  • Cancel request: Enables you to cancel a change request.
  • Undo: Enables you to revert to the previous modifications.
  • Save: Enables you to save the modifications and create a change request. A change request number is generated.
  • Submit: Enables you to submit the change request.
