Supplier Invitation

Before Suppliers can perform transactions in SAP Fieldglass, they must be invited by buyer organizations to associate their tenant to the buyer’s tenant. Buyer organizations initiate this process from the Supplier Invitation admin object.

Suppliers will receive invitations to connect to buyer's instances of SAP Fieldglass in their email inboxes.

Navigating the Supplier Invitation Admin Object

Select the Supplier Invitation admin object from the Supplier section of the admin menu to view the list of the supplier invitations that have been sent. 

Create a Supplier Invitation

WorkingNet has found a new supplier—Code/e.r.—that specializes in providing quality programmers, coders, and software developers. It has decided that it would like to invite that supplier to connect.

As the SAP Fieldglass administrator for WorkingNet, you will need to create a supplier invitation so that Code/e.r. can connect with WorkingNet in SAP Fieldglass.

The Supplier Registers

Suppliers must register in the SAP Fieldglass application in order to connect with buyer tenants and begin performing transactions. Suppliers register either by being invited by buyers, or by creating Storefronts in SAP Fieldglass, which allow buyers to find them.
