    • Internal stakeholders represent key relationship types associated with a supplier such as Business owner, Category manager, or Procurement manager. Mapping internal stakeholders to a unique relationship type enhances governance data visibility and facilitates effective relationship management with a supplier.

    Important:
    This functionality is available from the Yokohama December 2025 release onwards.

    You can add internal stakeholders with unique relationship types and remove non-essential internal stakeholders from the Source-to-Pay Workspace.

    Each internal stakeholder can be assigned only one of the following relationship types:
    • Primary Relationship Manager
    • Secondary Relationship Manager
    • Procurement Manager
    • Category Manager
    • Contract Manager
    • Business Owner
    Note:
    You can configure all relationship types, except the Primary Relationship Manager type, to align with your business requirements.

    Internal stakeholders with Primary Relationship Manager relationship type must be assigned the [sn_slm.owner] role manually, which enables them to view, create, and update stakeholders for the associated supplier. All relationship types, other than Primary Relationship Manager, are for reference only. For more information on roles and their description, see Components installed with Supplier Lifecycle Operations.
