Selecting Order Desk and RFQ Contacts for a Supplier

For each supplier, you can select a default contact to use when sending purchase orders and requests for quotation (RFQs) to a supplier. At the time you send a procurement document to a supplier, you can change the contact person and method, if necessary.

You can select either of these options for a contact person, but only one contact can have each option selected. For example, only one contact can be selected as the RFQ contact person. However, the same contact person could be the RFQ contact and the purchase order contact.

This topic explains how to select existing contacts as the RFQ and order desk default contacts. To add a new contact to a supplier, see Adding a Contact for a Supplier.
