Questions and Answers

A. Catalog Management

Where are the extract concurrent processes in rel 12?

In rel 12 there is no need to extract the items. Once the item is entered in core PO it is available in iProcurement.
No need to enable the categories to iProcurement anymore. Use the Content Security Management to restrict
the items in iProcurement. The categories need to be mapped. See Note 454694.1 - Items With Mapped Category After
Item Creation Do Not Show Up In iProcurement.

How to create Local Blanket Purchase Agreement from Buyer Work Center?

Creating a Blanket Purchase Agreement (GBPA) from Buyer Work Center is always Global. To create a local BPA
go to Purchase Orders Form.

While Executing Bulkload the code is not checking against the file?

The code assumes the information from the Global Blanket Agreement.

While executing changes how do I know which item is available to the requestor/preparer?

The items available are the ones from the approved document. Until the changes are approved, they are not
available to
the requestor/preparer.

Is there any lock mechanism for updates from buyer, supplier, and catalog administrator?

There is a column locked by that controls the updates by multiple users.

B. Content Security Management

Where are the realms in rel 12?

Realms are replaced by Content Security Management in rel 12. Realms from prior releases are converted to
content zones.

I assigned multiple content zones to a store. Ho can I test the setup?

There is a Test Stores Setup in the Manage Stores page. Enter the Operating Unit and Responsibility to check
the setup.

C. Search Enhancements

How can I restrict the items in iProcurement?

Use Content Security Management features to restrict the items in iProcurement.

Can I select and add multiple lines in the cart?

Yes, in rel 12 there is a preference to change the format of search results. Go to iProcurement Home Page, click
Preferences link at the top of the page, click iProcurement Preferences at the left side.
Change Shopping Search Results Layout to Grid View. This will let you select multiple items to add to the cart.

Why is the Browse not showing all the items?

The items from the Browse depends on the store.

D. Change Requests

Where are the tolerances for change requests?

The tolerances are now in the Purchasing responsibility > Setup > Tolerances and Routings. The tolerances from
Worfklow are obsoleted.

E. Multi-org Access (MOAC)

What is Multi-org Access?

In rel 12 using the same responsibility requestors/preparers/approvers can choose the operating unit from a LOV to
see
the requisitions from different operating units without switching responsibilities. This can be accomplished by setting
