Distribution List

SAP Fieldglass uses Distribution Lists to ensure the proper routing of job postings to suppliers.

A distribution list is a structured list of suppliers that is included on a job posting and lists the suppliers who should receive that request to fill a position. The lists can contain a single supplier or multiple suppliers who can be grouped by level of distribution based on the buyer company’s business needs.

The Distribution tab of a job posting will display the suppliers that the job posting has been sent to.
