A hosted supplier catalog is used to enable employees to purchase products and services from a suppliers assortment without having to create all part number and pricing information in the system.
Use this activity to create a new revision of an existing supplier catalog to make necessary adjustments before approving the new version of the catalog, making it available for self-service procurement. When creating the new revision you can chose to copy product lines and the mapping to the procurement category assortments used for navigating in the self-service portal from an existing revision of the catalog. When copying the mapped assortments, the mapping between the product lines and the assortment nodes will be automatically refreshed.
A new revision of the catalog will be created in status Planned and information will be copied based on the selection made when creating the new revision. Note that you only can have one planned/preliminary revision of the catalog at a time.
