• Key Concepts: 
  Proposed seller is a term used in the SAP Application Platform (AP) to refer to a vendor or supplier who has been identified as a potential source of goods or services. The proposed seller is typically identified through a request for quotation (RFQ) process, where multiple vendors are invited to submit bids for the goods or services. The proposed seller is then selected based on the criteria specified in the RFQ. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use the proposed seller feature in SAP AP, an organization must first create an RFQ and invite vendors to submit bids. Once the bids have been received, the organization can then review them and select the proposed seller based on the criteria specified in the RFQ. Once the proposed seller has been selected, they can then be added to the system as a vendor and their goods or services can be purchased. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an RFQ, it is important to include all relevant information about the goods or services being requested. This will help ensure that vendors are able to accurately submit bids and that the organization is able to select the best possible proposed seller. Additionally, it is important to review all bids carefully before selecting a proposed seller, as this will help ensure that the best possible vendor is chosen for the job.
