Supplier Actions for Discrete Orders A new order is loaded into SCP-MOD in a New state, with all of its lines in a New state. The supplier can change a New order to these states: Accepted – the supplier agrees to the complete request from the buyer Acknowledged with Exceptions – the supplier would like to meet the request, but with an exception to some part of the request Supplier Rejected – the supplier cannot meet the request The supplier can move order lines that are in an ‘Accepted’ or ‘Acknowledged with Exceptions’ state to a Closed state. It is possible to create shipments (ASNs) or invoices against ‘Closed’ lines. Copyright 2014 Exostar LLC. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
Buyer/System Actions for Discrete Orders The buyer can change an order to the Updated state by sending in a change order to SCP. Once the full request quantity for an order line has been invoiced, the system moves order lines to a Closed state automatically. The supplier can also manually move lines to ‘Closed’. Order lines move to an Archived state when they have been in a ‘Closed’ state for more than 180 days. Copyright 2014 Exostar LLC. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
