Buyer Messages

Stace Webley

I'm having a little bit of a relapse today on buyer messages...I don't do them, but if a buyer wanted to enforce PO pricing on a buyer message in MA66.3 then they use the Accept option, correct? Then in order to pay the Invoice price they use the Adjust option, right? This seems backwards to me, but am I right?

You are correct Stace. Use Accept when the PO unit cost is correct. Use Adjust when the invoice is correct. It does seem a little backwards because you're presented with an invoice and you're choosing Accept. But that field is "PO Unit Cost", that's what's being accepted. We adjust for the most part unless the line is tied to an agreement. Then the buyer forwards the message to our contracts team to figure out.
