When negotiations are complete for a sourcing event, you can award one or more suppliers. Awarding suppliers creates purchase requisitions for the selected suppliers and items.

Enter spend and savings data for the pipeline project.
**Note:** The Review financials modal is displayed only if the sourcing event is associated with a pipeline project.

The **Hard savings** field is auto-populated and displays the cumulative savings from all sourcing events associated with the pipeline project. This value is calculated by summing the Negotiated savings from all closed purchase requisition lines \(PRLs\) within the sourcing events.

You can edit the **Hard savings** field if you’d like. If you edit the **Hard savings** field, a warning message appears indicating that the entered value differs from the cumulative negotiated savings on PRLs. This warning is shown only if there are negotiated savings on any PRL.
  1. Select Submit.
