The order waits for your decision: accept the change and the order is confirmed at the revised amount; reject it and that order is cancelled, with the line returning to re-sourcing.
Instead of confirming their order as issued, a supplier may come back with a counter — a new amount or a revised lead-time note. The order moves to Change proposed, the Order confirmation record stays awaiting confirmation, and nothing is confirmed on your behalf.
You see the counter in the Orders & confirmation section of your demand's Offers tab, on that supplier's order card: "Supplier proposed a change: old amount → new amount. Your decision is required." Two buttons follow:
- Accept change — the order moves to Confirmed at the new amount, and the confirmation record (document no, buyer and supplier, lines, totals) is re-snapshotted onto the revised figure. Once every order on the demand is confirmed, the demand completes.
- Reject — the order becomes Cancelled, its confirmation record lapses, and the line returns to re-sourcing. The demand does not complete.
The status line on the card tracks the path: Issued → Change proposed → Confirmed. The counter is also logged on the Activity tab as "proposed an order change".
