The CSP enables fast and comprehensive processing of all the steps of the procurement cycle through extensive, efficient and transparent digital purchasing tools. This page will serve as your central guide for all information relating to QNB’s CSP.

The history at the bottom of the event page would indicate the total amount, response name, and the time of submission.

Why do I keep getting reminder emails?


You will receive automated emails periodically for various purposes including approaching expiry of your registration documents, reminders that a sourcing event is about to close and any important announcements.

Once the invoice is submitted, you cannot edit/delete/cancel it. 

How are payment due dates calculated? 


Payment due dates are calculated based on the date of invoice submission on the Coupa Supplier Portal. We use the submission date as the starting point for payment calculations, rather than the date stated on the invoice document itself. This approach ensures accurate and timely payment processing, aligning with our internal systems.

How can I reset my password?
