- Buyers configure the Supply Chain Monitor with tolerances for quantity, date, and price
- When an Order Confirmation arrives that is within the tolerance set, the Order Confirmation passes through the Supply Chain Monitor and is sent directly back to the buyer
- When an Order Confirmation arrives that is outside tolerances, the Order Confirmation is intercepted and an alert is raised.
- The Buyer reviews the Order Confirmation and chooses to Reject, Approve, or Approve and Update
- For deviations on price, it is not possible to choose "Approve"
