In some cases, as seen below in the Business Scenario section, the Procurement application will automatically send a change order to the supplier. This section will detail when that happens and how it is decided that a change order should be automatically issued.
The only time Procurement will consider automatically issuing a change order to the supplier is when the supplier initiates a change request. The supplier initiates a change request via an order response that has changes to the order. In this case, Procurement may send a confirmation of the accepted changes to the supplier. The confirmation is a change order with the supplier changes applied to the latest accepted order.
Three conditions must be met before Procurement will automatically issue a change order in response to a supplier update. First, the buyer must accept the changes either via the Order Tolerance service or manually via Procurement's order screens. Secondly, the order status for the order response is either "AcceptedWithChanges" or "ChangeOrder". Lastly, the ConfirmChange EBO application setting must be enabled (which is by default).
