Supplier Registration Status Flow

As suppliers move through a new registration project, their registration status moves from Not Invited to Registered or Registration Denied.

ActionRegistration Status
A registration manager started a registration, but the operation failed.Not Invited to Failed - Not Invited (temporary status) to Not Invited
The supplier has been invited to register, or an internal registration has started, and recipients have been sent links to external registration questionnaires.Not Invited to Invite in Progress (temporary status) to Invited
The registration has been canceled.Invited to Not Invited
Recipients have started but have yet to submit at least one external registration questionnaire.Invited to In Registration
Recipients have submitted responses to at least one registration questionnaire and they're in the approval process.In Registration to Pending Approval
An approver has asked a questionnaire recipient for more information as a condition of approving the registration.Pending Approval to Pending Resubmit
The recipient has resubmitted more information for the registration questionnaire and it's back in the approval process.Pending Resubmit to Pending Approval
Approvers have finally approved all external questionnaires and nonprofile internal questionnaires in the registration, and all tasks in the registration workflow have been completed.Pending Approval to Registered
A registration manager has invited a supplier previously registered internally to participate in the registration.Registered
At least one external questionnaire or nonprofile internal questionnaire has been denied.Pending Approval to Registration Denied
An approver has started a new round of the approval task for a denied registration questionnaire.Registration Denied to Pending Approval
A registration manager has reinvited a supplier to a denied registration or has invited a supplier to participate in a denied internal registration.Registration Denied to Invited

A supplier can also move from Invited, In Registration, Pending Resubmit, or Pending Approval registration status to Not Invited registration status in either of the following circumstances:

  • The registration is internal and has been canceled
  • The registration is external, and a customer administrator in your organization has unlinked the supplier's SAP Business Network account
