The company I work for is running a pilot using the B2B supplier portal - we are running on apps 10.
We have run into a situation where the supplier contact that will manage the orders from within the portal is tied to multiple supplier numbers within the IFs system.
We set up each of the suppliers and persons appropriately and as seen below check all the supplier numbers, but are not seeing all of the right data in the portal for each supplier number.
It seems IFS is only allowing for there to be a single default supplier and only those orders/data set appears in the portal.
Does anyone know if multiple suppliers can be set for a single person?
You have observed ‘IFS is only allowing for there to be a single default supplier and only those orders/data set appears in the portal’, which is correct and according to my understanding the standard behavior of the system. Correctly as Indika suggested you can define multiple suppliers from Basic Data, but there is no possibility of changing this from the B2B portal itself to view data for different suppliers.
As I have heard, there are few arguments behind this according to RnD, one is the inability of doing such change in the Support scope. Another argument which was convincing enough is the need of centralized control of who views what data.
