The Query component of SAP Sourcing provides customizable access to data. In particular, queries drive the following:

  • Lists, such as My RFPs

  • Object pickers, such as Search Contents by Supplier

  • Channels, such as the To Do List channel

  • The selection of objects to be exported

You use the Query component to customize and extend these areas of the application. Working with queries requires knowledge of SQL and a basic understanding of the SAP Sourcing data model. The data model reference is available in a separate document through the SAP Professional Services organization.

SAP Sourcing provides an extensive set of queries by default. You cannot edit these queries, but you can duplicate a query to use it as a model for a custom query. You can edit custom queries as needed.

This section describes how to create and edit a query definition.
