Managing Vendor Status

As an Admin, you have the ability to update the status of any vendor:

  • Approved: Mark a vendor as approved when they meet all necessary compliance requirements.

  • Pending: Set the vendor’s status to pending if their approval is still under review.

  • Denied: If a vendor fails to meet your compliance criteria, you can mark their status as denied.

To update a vendor’s status, simply click on the vendor’s entry, select the status dropdown, and choose the appropriate status.
