This feature adds the ability to create material quote events from the Product Sourcing interface and then move to guided sourcing. It also adds material 360° links to materials that you add to your guided sourcing project.
Customers are unable to take advantage of guided sourcing when attempting to do material quotes from the direct materials dashboard. This creates an inconsistent user experience.
With the release of this feature, buyers are now able to trigger the material quoting process from the direct materials dashboard and then move to guided sourcing. This provides the buyer with a consistent user experience across both their indirect and direct sourcing needs.
