The employee self-service procurement portal is a tool for employees to easily find products available for self-service procurement and create purchase requests with pre-defined information.
Use this activity to add a product from the self-service catalog to the shopping cart and specify the required quantity. The catalog can contain both products defined as part numbers in IFS or products from a hosted supplier catalog.
Note that you could also use the portal to buy products to a specific work task or project activity. Then you should either open the portal from the work task or activity or add the reference in the shopping cart later on in the process.
A self-service catalog must have been created and published.
If you want the procurement to be connected to a work task or project activity, you need to open the portal from the work task or project side.
