Offers are an essential business object of the purchasing contract negotiation process, which uses them as the main communication element. Upon receipt of an offer by one party participating in the negotiation phase they can accept the offer, reject it or make a counter offer. The negotiation phase ends with an offer which all parties mutually agree on, Once this state is reached a purchasing contract is created and signed by all parties. Once this is done, the customer party can create one or multiple procurement orders.


An offer always consists of one offer header and one or multiple offer positions:

Offer header

Offer positions

B-Op Integration

Offers and RFPs are exchanged automatically over the b-Op Network with other b-op Digitals taking part in the negotiation phase, as long as both sides mutually share the b-op Trustrelation "Allow Offer-Negotiations" of the b-op Tradesphere with the other business participant. When a customer wants to enter the negotiation phase with multiple suppliers at the same time, he may use the RFP process which requests from a list of suppliers an initial offer.
