Purchase Offer Evaluations and Received Offer Acceptance


The Purchase Offer includes a function that allows our company to monitor the offers received from different companies in order to purchase the products it needs, to determine the most suitable prices, and to place an order according to the suitability of the received offers.

On the purchase offer detail page, the offers submitted by the companies for which the offer is requested can be listed on a product basis. Based on these evaluations, we can determine the most profitable offers for our company and create an order at the next stage. There may be more than one item in the order offers. In the offers submitted by the companies for which offers are requested, different price offers may have been sent to us on an item basis. In this case, "Received Offer Acceptance" can be used, where we can determine the most profitable offers on a product basis and view them on a single screen.


Route: ERP > Sales & Distribution > Purchasing > Purchase Offers

Received Offer Acceptance can be accessed in the Purchase offer detail, under the Other tab in the Tab menu.

Now, let's assume that we receive offers from different companies for two items that our company needs. In this case, on the Received Offer Acceptance page, we can view the plus and minus conditions of the offers sent to us from different companies against the prices offered by our company. In this case, our company received offers from three different companies for the computer parts it needed.


The purchasing unit wants to evaluate the most profitable offers and convert them into orders. On the received offer acceptance screen, it will mark the accepted prices on which product basis and from which current account and send it to the manager for approval. The Purchasing Unit manager, on the other hand, will be able to see which part will be purchased from which current partner for computer parts at the marked prices by viewing the Received Offer Acceptance screen.

NOTE: The received offer acceptance screen is used only to show which products are to be purchased from which suppliers. It does not have the function of creating order according to the selected offers.

Suppose the purchasing unit has marked the most profitable prices and sent the offer to its manager for approval.

Case Study

  1. Create a purchase offer for five items of products.
  2. Request offers from four different companies for this purchase offer.
  3. Four companies submitting offers send offers at different prices for the products for which offers are requested. Save these offers.
  4. From the Purchase Detail page, open the Received offer acceptance popup and view the received offers.
  5. Check the best prices for you.
  6. Save these prices by ticking. Send the purchase offer to your manager.
  7. Assuming that your manager checks and approves the selected prices on the received offer acceptance screen, create purchase orders for current customers.
