SAP Portal Terminology and Definitions
Check for available funds From the end user’s perspective, this is the first step in the procurement
process. You must do this before creating a shopping cart.
Shopping Cart Virtual container used to designate the items a customer intends to purchase
From the end user’s perspective, this second step in the procurement process
is a request for goods or services.
Catalog Shopping Cart These items are on an annual contract and have material master data in
SRM that contains a product category, product description, price and possibly a
vendor source. This will also include items stored in one of HISD’s
warehouses.
Free Text Shopping Cart These items have no material master data or vendor source, nor is there a
contract governing these items. All information about the items must be entered
into the SRM system when the shopping cart is created.
Plant A four-digit number that identifies a specific school, facility, or work location.
Release a Shopping Cart From the end user’s perspective, this is the third step in the procurement
process. The fund administrator must release (approve) the items in the
shopping cart once it has been created.
Purchase Order From the end user’s perspective, this is the fourth step in the procurement
process. This is an actual request to a vendor for a specific good or service.
This document based on information provided in the shopping cart.
Confirmations From the end user’s perspective, this is the last step in the procurement
process. After the goods or services have arrived, this document is created to
document the movement of the goods. Once the end user has posted a
confirmation, the vendor can be paid.
Product Category A number that identifies a group of several related materials.
Supplier A number that identifies a specific vendor in the SAP Portal.
Product ID A number that identifies a specific item in SRM.
Universal Worklist Folder containing all documents and resubmissions sent to a user. This is
officially the SRM Inbox.
Queries The conditions of a request for information available in the system.

Title: SAP Portal Business Process Application: SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) Structure/Role: SRM-Basic End-User SAP Portal Business Process 07/18/2011 Reference Number: 1010 Page 3 / 4 SAP Portal Terminology and Definitions Check for available funds From the end user’s perspective, this is the first step in the procurement process. You must do this before creating a shopping cart. Shopping Cart Virtual container used to designate the items a customer intends to purchase From the end user’s perspective, this second step in the procurement process is a request for goods or services. Catalog Shopping Cart These items are on an annual contract and have material master data in SRM that contains a product category, product description, price and possibly a vendor source. This will also include items stored in one of HISD’s warehouses. Free Text Shopping Cart These items have no material master data or vendor source, nor is there a contract governing these items. All information about the items must be entered into the SRM system when the shopping cart is created. Plant A four-digit number that identifies a specific school, facility, or work location. Release a Shopping Cart From the end user’s perspective, this is the third step in the procurement process. The fund administrator must release (approve) the items in the shopping cart once it has been created. Purchase Order From the end user’s perspective, this is the fourth step in the procurement process. This is an actual request to a vendor for a specific good or service. This document based on information provided in the shopping cart. Confirmations From the end user’s perspective, this is the last step in the procurement process. After the goods or services have arrived, this document is created to document the movement of the goods. Once the end user has posted a confirmation, the vendor can be paid. Product Category A number that identifies a group of several related materials. Supplier A number that identifies a specific vendor in the SAP Portal. Product ID A number that identifies a specific item in SRM. Universal Worklist Folder containing all documents and resubmissions sent to a user. This is officially the SRM Inbox.
