Who can do what in SCM with Vendor Scorecard

Separate demand preparation, independent decisions, receiving evidence and supplier analysis.

How permissions work

Owned preparation

Procurement Specialist prepares assigned request drafts and lines. Protected submission, commitment and correction actions check the permitted scope and revision.

Independent review

Procurement Reviewer decides eligible request and assessment revisions through guarded actions. The role also reconciles operation evidence through its authorized action. Preparation and administrative access do not supply independent approval authority.

Actual acceptance

Receiving Officer records accepted quantities through the receipt action. Read access to line details does not permit an unrestricted edit of protected accepted scope.

Invoice matching

Finance Officer requests a match against unused accepted scope and follows the reviewed eligible amount. That authority does not execute a payment.

Supplier analysis

Supplier Analyst prepares assessments and evidence. The independent reviewer decides whether the current submission can proceed.

Evidence access

Auditor reads authorized history without changing it. Admin maintains users, memberships and suppliers without acquiring commercial approval authority.
