In the context of suppliers within a buying organization, a prospective supplier is one that is being evaluated for potential business but is not yet authorized for financial transactions, while a spend authorized supplier is one that is fully approved and can be used for procurement activities including purchase orders and invoices


Prospective Suppliers:
Purpose:
These suppliers are typically used for sourcing negotiations and supplier qualification processes.
Limitations:
They are not yet authorized for procurement transactions that involve financial spend.
Example:
A company might register a new supplier as prospective to gather information and determine if they meet the required standards before moving to spend authorization.
Spend Authorized Suppliers:
Purpose:
These suppliers are fully authorized to be used in all procurement activities, including purchase orders, invoicing, and other financial transactions.
Example:
Once a supplier is determined to be reliable and meets the buying organization’s requirements, they are transitioned to spend authorized status, allowing them to be used for all financial interactions.
Process:
A prospective supplier can be promoted to spend authorized status through a request process, such as after being awarded a negotiation.
