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. The supplier catalog is normally uploaded from a file, either by the procurement department or directly by the supplier, but can also be entered manually.
Use this activity to manually enter product lines to the hosted supplier catalog.
As a result of this activity you will be able to approve the hosted supplier catalog. When the supplier catalog is approved and included in a self-service catalog, the entered products will be available for self-service procurement.
