Define User Defaults for Self-service Procurement
Explanation
Use this activity to define default values per user and company used in the self-service procurement solution to
help the users enter the necessary information to be used on the created requisitions.
Prerequisites
- A company and the relevant user must have been created.
- To enter a default value in any of the columns the relevant basic data like requisitioner, internal customer
and internal destination, must have been created.
- To enter default values for any of the code parts, the code part values must have been created. You can set
up default values for the code parts even though no pre-posting have been defined for the company, but the values
will only be used if the pre-posting for purchase or material requisitions is enabled.
System Effects
- The entered default values per user will be automatically added to the self-service procurement shopping cart
when the user adds products to the cart. The values in the shopping cart can then be changed before the cart is
submitted to a purchase or material requisition.
- For the cart to inherit the values for the code parts (i.e. cost center), pre-posting must have been enabled
for purchase and or material requisitions.
