Requirements

All requirements

On this page, you can find all the individual requirements that are the result of your requirement rules. Based on these requirements the system checks at 00:00 what requests need to be sent out.

To refrain from spamming your suppliers you can suspend requirements. To suspend requirements, click on the box on the left of that requirement rule then click suspend.

Then a pop-up will let you choose the period of how long you want to suspend the selected requirement rules. And those suppliers will no longer receive the document requests.

There are two icons you need to take note of:

This icon means that in the supply chain of this organisation, we have no notifiable contacts. We are therefore unable to send out any requests.

This icon means that a document request is not going to be created for this requirement. This could for example be because the organisation is blocked or manually suspended. You can find the reason if you hover over the line in the ‘suspensions’ column.

Requirement rules

On this page, you set up and manage all your requirement rules. The core idea of SCA is that you set up rules that dictate what documents you require from specific organisations. The system will then create requirements and requests based on these rules.

You can set up general requirement rules or requirement rules for specific products. You can find a list of all product-specific documents here.
