With the Now Assist for Supplier Lifecycle Operations (SLO) application, supplier managers can summarize the details of supplier-related cases to keep them informed about their progress and action items.

## Overview of Now Assist for SLO {#now-assist-slo-exploring__section_qlx_pp4_cyb}

Using the generative AI capabilities, a supplier manager can generate a summary of a case. This summary provides a supplier manager with a concise overview of the case, actions completed so far, and the next steps that need to be
taken. A supplier manager gets the context by gathering information about a case and acting quickly​. Supplier managers can also refresh and post the summary to the work notes or activity stream.
