The Define PO exception mitigation strategy workflow assesses the material delivery gap caused by an exception. It then identifies alternative suppliers with open lines for the affected product model and proposes order
adjustments to mitigate the shortfall.

   {#identify-mitigation-strategies-for-exceptions__ul_ojc_5xb_m3c}  
   The Now Assist panel opens and the agentic workflow begins analyzing the exception and building a mitigation strategy by:
   * Outlining the material delivery gap caused by the exception.
   * Locating open purchase order lines with alternative suppliers for the same product model.
   * Recommending order adjustments that can help offset the shortfall.

4. Review the proposed solution and either accept it or request specific changes to the alternative supplier orders.

## Resultado

The agentic workflow then creates the appropriate order revision (a purchase requisition of type Order Revision) reflecting the approved changes.
