  Key Concepts: 
  Purchaser Alert is a feature of SAP LOD-ESO Sourcing OnDemand that allows buyers to set up alerts for specific events related to their purchasing activities. These alerts can be triggered when a purchase order is created, when a purchase order is changed, or when a purchase order is closed. The alerts can be sent via email or text message to the buyer or other designated recipients. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set up an alert, the buyer must first log into the SAP LOD-ESO Sourcing OnDemand system.
