Abstract
Techniques for communicating with a third-party management database are described herein. According to an embodiment, a computer receives a search-style query, searches the third-party management database, retrieves multiple computer-readable database search strings, displays the computer-readable database search strings, and receives a selected computer-readable database search string. In response, the computer queries the third-party management database using the selected search string, returns a temporary variable associated with a supplier risk score, and receives a command to perform a decision step as part of a workflow.
