Order Accepted By Supplier

Description: The supplier accepts an order sent by the buyer and sends back an order response. Additional actions may be taken on the order after the response is received by Procurement. If the Supplier supports change requests then the buyer may request a change, cancel the order or receive goods. Otherwise, the buyer may just receive goods. Likewise, the supplier may send additional order responses to inform the buyer of a status change, to reject the order or even to change the order. In this scenario, however, both buyer and supplier leave the order as Accepted.
