Integration tables for third-party sourcing

Integration tables are used to interact with the third-party sourcing application. Relevant information that is required to conduct a Request for anything (RFx) in the third-party application is staged within ServiceNow and transferred through APIs to the third-party application.

The following integration tables are used:

Sourcing Outbound Queue, which stores the sourcing requests. It captures the items that must be sourced along with the shopper, employee, or requester's requirements from sourcing intake.
Sourcing Line Outbound Queue, which stores the purchase lines associated with the sourcing requests. It captures the supplier details that the shopper, employee, or requester wanted to source from. Additionally, ServiceNow sends any other suppliers that supply the same product model as the item that must be sourced.
Sourcing Event Outbound Queue, which stores the negotiation type, objectives, third party sourcing event record, sourcing event number, and supplier response close associated with the sourcing requests.
Sourcing Bid Stage, which is an inbound table used as part of the RFx process. It’s used to get the supplier responses to the RFx in real time from the third-party tool, back into the ServiceNow instance.
Awarded Supplier Outbound Queue, which stores the awarded suppliers. It captures the supplier details that are awarded in ServiceNow, and shares this data with the third-party tool for them to share the award business wins or losses with the suppliers.
