Hi All,

Today we will cover an advanced process in Source to Pay application in ServiceNow.

This article would cover the detailed steps of using the Source to Pay Process with Negotiation Event.

1. Why is the need of Negotiation Event?

Negotiation Event is useful when you have to get the quotes from Suppliers and see the different quotes received from multiple suppliers. When I say Supplier quotes means raising the Negotiation Event and then raising multiple negotiations request inside that Negotiation Event.

Every Sourcing is linked to 1 Negotation Event

1 Negotiation Event is linked to multiple Negotiation Requests

1 Negotiation Request is raised for each Supplier.

2. What should be right Process to create the Negotiations and when?

When the request gets raised, we first need to raise sourcing request then basis on OOB capabilities. we can a rule to create the Negotiation Event and attach that to the sourcing request then we need to create the negotiation requests basis on the number of suppliers we have in the process who will send us the quotes.
