Overview – Purchasing Document Types
Purchasing Document Types (GBPA/SPO) Purchasing Document Line Types Price Breaks We will begin by covering Purchasing Document Types, Line Types and Price Breaks

Overview – Purchasing Document Types
Global Blanket Purchase Agreement (GBPA) Standard Purchase Order (SPO) The 2 Purchasing Document Types that will mainly be utilized in the portal are Global Blanket Purchase Agreements, which I will reference to as GBPA’s, and Standard Purchase Orders, which I will reference to as SPO’s
6
Global Blanket Purchase Agreement (GBPA)
Used to execute Statement of Commercial Terms of Master Agreements or stand alone contracts Allow better managing of supplier price books Oxy can create Standard Purchase Orders (SPO) against the GBPAs to request materials or services. Supplier can then electronically submit matched to SPO invoices for those materials and services If enabled, Supplier can also submit supplier charges against valid GBPAs to invoice materials and services requested by Oxy representatives A GBPA is used to execute Statement of Commercial Terms of Master Agreements or stand alone contracts and better manage suppliers price books Oxy can create SPO’s against the GBPAs to request materials or services. The Supplier can then electronically submit Matched to PO invoices for those materials and services If enabled, a Supplier can also submit supplier charges against valid GBPAs to invoice materials and services requested by Oxy representatives
7
Standard Purchase Agreement (SPO)
Used as a stand alone agreement for one-time purchases of materials or services when the description of the goods/services, pricing, quantities and delivery schedule are known. Used to order against Global Blanket or Contract Purchasing Agreement. SPO lines may reference to the applicable GBPA or GCPA. An SPO is used as a stand alone agreement for 1-time purchases of materials/services when the description of the goods/services, pricing, quantities and delivery schedule are known. They are also used to order against GBPAs or Contract Purchasing Agreements. SPO lines may reference to the applicable GBPA/GCPA

Process Overview – Purchasing Document
Negotiate Pricing Purchasing Document Created (GCPA/GBPA/SPO) Supplier Receives Notification (Via and iSupplier Portal) Purchasing Document SPO? Acknowledgement Required Yes The flow chart on the screen provides a high level look at how purchasing documents are created and executed in the portal. It will begin with the negotiation of pricing between the supplier and Oxy’s Supply Chain. Then a Purchase document will be created. You as a supplier, will receive a notification via and through the iSupplier Portal. If the document is an SPO an acknowledgement is required before the agreement becomes active. If the document is not an SPO type, then NO acknowledgement is required for activation. No Agreement Active

Overview – PO Line Types
Goods – Material item description, UOM/Rate are populated in price book. Services – Service item description, UOM/Rate are populated in price book. Amount Based Services – Services items, total amount is known (lump sum), quantity field is used as the “amount field”. UOM is the currency and the rate is $1 Price on Demand – Unplanned services/material/other charges that are not specifically defined in the supplier’s price book Now that I have provided you with an overview of purchasing documents, I will now provide you with an overview of what PO line types are and the different types of PO Lines PO Line Types are line items in the supplier pricebook categorized as the following: Goods & Services will both include an item description, UOM/Rate are populated in the price book Amount Based Services line types are service items where the total amount is known by you as the supplier and the quantity field is used as the “amount field” so the UOM is the currency and the Rate is $1. Price on Demand – Unplanned services/material/other charges that are not specifically defined in the supplier’s price book, but were ordered and are being billed
10
Overview – PO Lines Types (continued)
3rd Party – Services/Materials provided by a 3rd party(subcontractor). Not specifically defined in the price book Reimbursable – Expenses to be reimbursed based on an expense report. Not specifically defined in the price book Sales Tax – Sales tax Tax Other – Taxes that are not sales tax i.e. well servicing tax Freight – Transportation costs charged separately from material/services cost 3RD party line type will be used for services or materials provided by a 3rd party(subcontractor). Reimbursable line type can be used when expenses are to be reimbursed based on an expense report The Sales Tax line type is for any Sales tax included, if applicable And the Tax Other line type will be available for any other Taxes that are not sales tax i.e. well servicing tax The Freight line type is available to include transportation costs charged separately from material/services cost It is possible that each pricebook may not include all line types. If the line type is not applicable to that pricebook, Supply Chain will not include it or make it available for the supplier to use when invoicing against that contact
11
Overview – Price Breaks
Price Breaks: Some PO Line items will contain Price Breaks. Price breaks occur whenever the GBPA contains complex pricing for the supplier charges submitted Price breaks can be a Service, Goods or Price on Demand PO Line type The price is determined by either the quantity and/or the date range Price breaks are indicated by the missing rate in the rate field of the supplier’s pricebook There will be some PO line items that will contain Price Breaks occurring whenever the GBPA contains complex pricing. Price Breaks will be applied to service, goods or Price on Demand PO line types The price is determined by either the quantity and/or the date range You will be able to identify if the line type has a Price Break by the missing rate in the Rate field of the pricebook

Any time there are purchase documents that require approval or that are now available to view in the portal, and notification will be sent to the supplier. If approval is needed for a purchasing document, the supplier will receive an ‘action required’ notification ending with the statement, “Requires your acceptance”, such as the screen shot shown above. But if only a review is needed, the supplier will receive a no action required notification stating that it’s “For Your Review” such as the screen shot shown at the bottom.

View Payments Now we will continue to the view payments section. Staying in the Finance tab, I will move over to the View Payments hyperlink. This will direct you to a search screen again. At any point that you are directed to a search screen, you can populate any of the filters to search for specific invoices or payments or leave the filters blank and select ‘GO’ and the search results will appear below. The results include the Payment number that paid, the date it was paid from Oxy, the amount of the total payment and if it’s reconciled in the suppliers account or still pending. This field is great to review if you receive checks and they are processed by a 3rd party. It will also include invoice #’s that were paid on the payment made and the PO # it applied against if it included one. The results also have the ability to be exported in an Excel file, but if the payment includes multiple invoice #’s they will not be listed when exported. It will basically be a duplicate view of the results shown. The first column will include the payment #. By selecting the blue payment number hyperlink, it will direct you to a more detailed view of the payment made including the invoice # or invoice numbers if multiple were included on the payment. You can also get to the detailed payment view by selecting the hyperlink under the Invoice column. If there is a number in that column, then only 1 invoice was on the payment, but if the column states Multiple, then selecting the hyperlink will provide the multiple invoice that were included on that payment. And selecting the hyperlink in the PO Number column will route you to more details of the PO or PO’s included on the payment.
