Click Get started and use Proto to configure SCM with Supplier Portal. Name the procurement owner, a requester, an independent approver, a buyer and a receiving clerk for the first organization.

Prepare the first operating cycle

Choose a supplier, category, item or service, cost center and ship-to location. Bring one real request, a representative supplier response and an order with a delivery date. Review approval authority and supplier qualification before using those records. Set up only the connected destinations needed for the pilot.

Review before release

Have the team rehearse the request decision, order revision, order acknowledgement and a partial receipt. Compare commitment and accepted quantity totals. Sign in as each role, including the supplier, to check access. Resolve any failed delivery acknowledgement and open match exception before expanding the cycle. See implementation for the sequence.

Set up SCM with Supplier Portal your way.

Start free, then use Proto to change fields, steps and approvals before your team goes live.
