They can convert high-potential suppliers, and capture value through card-based payments. Importante: Check your entitlements to determine whether you have access to Supplier Payment Optimization. The Supplier Payment Optimization (com.snc.sn_slm_opt) application enables suppliers managers to estimate potential savings from credit card payments, which can result in significant cost savings for the company. It provides a Supplier Payment Optimization dashboard that provides an overview of the total potential savings for all suppliers. Supplier Payment Optimization offers the following key benefits: * Estimate savings: Estimate savings and returns associated with card acceptance by the suppliers. * Effective expense tracking: Compare actual expenses with the data available on the dashboard on monthly, quarterly, yearly, and all-time spend. * Drive conversion of high-potential suppliers: Identify, prioritize, and track suppliers with high acceptance potential. * Stronger supplier relationships: With more suppliers accepting credit card payments, timely and reliable payments help build trust and may lead to better pricing or priority service. {#supplier-pmnt-opt__ul_gjw_145_jcc} Supplier Payment Optimization offers the following capabilities: * Saving estimator tool: The saving estimation tool can be used to calculate potential savings from credit card payments. The tool uses default values and enables users to modify billing cycles and other parameters to create new estimates. For more information, see [Estimate savings using the saving estimator tool](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/9Hz6Sy~IihLgzkTxRgmtVw "The saving estimator tool is used to calculate potential savings from credit card payments. The tool uses default values and allows users to modify billing cycles and other parameters to create new estimates."). * Propensity score: Supplier managers can check the propensity score (currently requires manual updates) before proceeding with raising the new supplier credit card enablement journey. For more information, see [Add propensity score for a supplier](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KEAHhitUGcExyNf9uDnaLw "The propensity score is used to identify the likelihood of a supplier to accept credit card payments. The supplier managers can manually update the propensity score for suppliers from the Source-to-Pay Workspace."). * Credit card enablement: Supplier Managers can initiate credit card enablement cases, enabling suppliers to use a credit card as their preferred payment method. For more information, see [Create a case for supplier credit card enablement](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/y9nEM2urz3VR54irULQjZA "Create a supplier case to request for the credit card information from a supplier."). * Payment optimization dashboard: The dashboard includes data on the all-time spend and total spend for the current month, current quarter, and current year. It also lists the top 10 supplier opportunities based on the saving estimates generated using the saving estimation tool.
