Hi Nilson,

the Supplier Directory does not work in a One Client Environment. The business

partners are directly created in the related client, why the catalog link does not

provide any information. The situation only changes using two clients.

Besides, in a one client environment, it is also feasible to work without the

directory; it depends a bit on the number of suppliers registering - the size of the

directory. When it a registration on invitation only, it works fine without a directory.

Cheers,

Hi Claudia

Thanks for help me.

So in the case of a single client, how is the process?

Self-registered suppliers could be accepted and become business partner imediately, where can I see this business partners and how can convert it to suppliers?

Thanks

Hi Nilson,

basically it is the same process for enabling a registered supplier. The supplier

directory is just a tool to integrated various supplier databases; in a two-client

environment SUS serves as the database.

The process starts with the business partner number a registered supplier gets,

when the data set from the registration page is submitted. This number is available

via Prescreen on the list overview. In that transaction the buyer accepts a supplier.

After that, the number is available for enablement via trx Manage Business Partner.

Use that number and convert the accepted supplier into a vendor. After that step,

the vendor is visible in the Org model under the node defined for Vendors.

Cheers,

Claudia
