Clearing Registration Process

After the registration forms are filled up and submitted a clearing task is initiated and users are assigned to the clearing task.

If a group of users is assigned to a clearing task, then the first user opening the clearing task becomes responsible for that task.

The clearing task involves clearing a registration, creating or updating supplier master data and creating external supplier accounts. It is possible to define allocation of clearing tasks depending on answers given during registration. The rules for allocation and the corresponding accounts are defined during the workflow configuration.
