Redwood: Use Additional Capabilities When Processing Requisition Lines as a Buyer


You can now process requisition lines into a negotiation using a Redwood experience. This
update enhances buyer capabilities by allowing users to split, return, or reassign requisition
lines. You can also add lines to existing staged documents or select suppliers based on past
purchases.

Process Requisition Lines into Negotiation


Buyers can now process requisition lines into a new or existing negotiation, not just purchase
orders. When eligible requisition lines are selected and staged, the system defaults the sourcing
method to Initiate negotiation under the following conditions:
• One or more lines require a negotiation
• Lines belong to multiple requisitioning BUs
The system automatically applies values in the Action section for:
• Negotiation Template – From Manage Negotiation Styles
• Group Lines – Based on Procurement Business Function setup

Staged Document to Create a New Negotiation

You can switch the Action Type from New Negotiation to Existing Negotiation, if the relevant
feature is enabled.

Note: Only negotiations in Draft, Submitted, Preview, or Active status can be selected for
amendment.

Staged Document to Add Lines to Existing Negotiation

After publishing, the system submits a background job. Use the Action Status tab to monitor
the process and retrieve the negotiation number.

Switch Between Sourcing Methods


You can toggle between Place Order and Initiate Negotiation at any point before publishing
the staged document. Use the Split action to divide a requisition line by quantity or amount.

2. Number of orders placed

document. If matches are found, requisition lines are automatically added to existing staged
documents.

see order summaries, schedule details, lifecycle history, and more. This feature enables easier
navigation and better visibility into order status.

Redwood Purchase Orders page or while viewing a specific order or change order. If using
Redwood-style acknowledgment FYI notifications, supplier approval notifications will also
route to this Redwood acknowledgment page.

• If a supplier change order is submitted on a PO pending acknowledgment, the
document cannot be acknowledged. The supplier change order must be deleted to
proceed with acknowledgment.
• Use the Action Status page to review the results when acknowledging multiple orders
at once.

Redwood: Create and Edit Purchase Orders for Project-Related Expenses


You can now create and edit purchase orders that charge costs to project-related expenses
using the Redwood interface. Project attributes can be entered and updated directly within the
Purchase Order Distribution Details and Change Order Distribution Details drawers.
This feature enables accurate cost allocation to sponsored and non-sponsored projects,
improving compliance and cost tracking.

Track Sponsored Project Information


While editing a purchase order or change order, you can capture key project costing
attributes:
• Project Number
• Task Number
• Expenditure Item Date
• Expenditure Type
• Expenditure Organization
• Contract Number (for sponsored projects only)
• Funding Source (for sponsored projects only)

Sponsored Projects

Dudekula Jamal

Non-Sponsored Projects

Note: Contract Number and Funding Source are automatically hidden when the project is non-
sponsored.

Configure Dependent Project LOVs


You can configure list-of-values (LOVs) for project fields to depend on other criteria like:
• Purchase Category
• Business Unit
• Destination Type
This helps ensure users select valid project data aligned with organizational rules.

Distribute Project Costs Automatically


If using award-based projects with predefined funding patterns (configured by grant admins),
use the Distribute Project Costs action to apply those patterns automatically.
• If Contract Number and Funding Source are blank and funding patterns exist,
distribution is automated.
• If no pattern is found, you'll need to manually fill in the fields.

Redwood: Specify Tax-Determinant Values on Purchase Orders as a Buyer


Buyers can now manually override tax-determinant attribute values while editing purchase
orders in the Redwood interface. This improves tax accuracy and allows greater flexibility
based on business requirements and jurisdictional rules.
You can update these values at both the header level and schedule level of a purchase order or
change order.

Header-Level Tax Attributes


Override tax-determinant values such as Taxation Country at the purchase order header.
Specify Values for Tax-Determinant Attributes on the Header

Schedule-Level Tax Attributes


Set or override attributes like Tax Classification Code, Final Discharge Location, or other
tax-relevant fields on each schedule line.
This also applies to change orders, where updates can be made at the schedule level.

Redwood: Reserve and Liquidate Funds and Encumbrances for Change Orders Using
the Current Budget Date
You can now reserve and liquidate funds and encumbrances for change orders using the
current budget date, rather than the original budget date used for initial funds reservation.
This flexibility ensures that change orders can still be processed if the original budget period
is closed, as long as the current period is open and the control budgets are active.

How It Works
In this enhancement, encumbrance and funds reservation use the current budget date assigned
at the time the change order is processed.
For example, a change order that increases reserved funds from $100 to $120 with a budget
date of 7/11/11 creates two separate encumbrance entries for the same date.

Redwood: Use Redwood-Style FYI Notifications in Product Replacement


You can now send Redwood-style workflow notifications to alert stakeholders about the mass
replacement of items due to supply disruption. These notifications provide modern visual
formatting and a responsive layout for email and worklist channels, ensuring seamless
readability across devices.

Purpose and Flow


When an alternate item or supplier is confirmed for replacement, the system initiates mass
replacement of unfulfilled purchase orders. Notifications are then sent to relevant stakeholders
including:
• Planners
• Par counters
• Requesters
These Redwood notifications:
• Inform users of the replacement event
• Prompt updates to min-max or par replenishment settings for the disrupted item
• Ensure no new replenishment requests are generated for disrupted items during the
replacement period

Supplier Model
Redwood: Validate Supplier Bank Accounts
You can now validate supplier bank accounts during supplier registration using a Redwood
experience integrated with JPMorgan’s Bank Account Validation Service (AVS). This helps
prevent fraud, reduce payment errors, and enhance transaction efficiency.

How It Works
After a supplier submits a registration, the system sends the bank account details to JPMorgan
AVS for validation. The results are presented to approvers in the Redwood-style registration
approval notification.
The validation includes:
• Bank Account Validity: Ensures the account exists and is open
• Bank Account Ownership: Confirms the account belongs to the registering supplier

Validation Statuses
Status Description
Verified Account is open, valid, and supplier is the owner
Failed Account is invalid/closed or the owner doesn't match the supplier
Inconclusive Account couldn’t be found or verified
