Material or Service Type questions can be used in the Smart Materials Portal in the company registration process. If the DBA setting COMP_REG_MAS_QUESTS is set to Active, the Material or Service Type questions are displayed on the Profile or the Qualifications tab, if the corresponding initial question has been answered with Yes.

  1. In the Master Data navigation panel, select Procurement > Question List.

  2. In the Questions panel, expand the Material and Service Questions node.

  3. Select a material or service type.

    Only material and service types are available which have Link Questions selected on the Materials and Services screen.

  4. Click Add Question Com_Add ICON.

  5. Select Company Profile or Qualification in the Level 1 box.

    The selected value determines on which page in the Portal the question is displayed.

  6. Type a unique sequence number in the Seq box, to define the display order of the questions in the Portal.

  7. Type the question in the Question box.

  8. Select an answer type from the list.

    Which answer type should I select?

    The answer type of a question controls the behavior when inserting the answer in the Portal. The available options are:

    Date - Requires a date value.

    Document upload only - Requires the upload of a document, but the user is not forced to provide an answer. If you select this option, the Mandatory check box is cleared and Document Required is set to Yes.

    Free Text - No restriction.

    LOV - Requires an answer from a select list (list of values - LOV). For this answer type, you must define a select list, using either of the following methods:

    • Enter a valid SQL statement on the Select List tab. The select statement must retrieve two values (see Define select lists).

    • Enter a list of valid values on the Select List tab (see Define select lists).

    • Select a value from the list in the Mapped to box. You select a P.20.01 or A.10.23 field to map it to the question. The answer is then filled into this field when the questionnaire is submitted.

      Multiple Answers - Requires the selection of pre-defined answer(s). You define a select list for this question in the same way as described above for the LOV type.

      Number - Requires a numeric value.

      Y/N - A select list with answers restricted to Y (Yes) and N (No). For questions with Y/N answer type you can define conditional questions (see Define conditional questions).

    This information is displayed when you click the Information icon in the Portal.
