Client: Vendor Compliance

Vendor Profile Compliance

A vendors compliance items are their documentation that prove that they are qualified or insured to do the job at hand. This is where Vendors will show their insurance policies, contracts, W-9 and more.

The vendor profile shows an overview of their compliance on the Details page in the Billing section.  This shows all active compliance items. Clicking on these displayed items brings you directly to the compliance item in the compliance tab. Compliance can be reached in the Vendor profile through the left nav bar.

Selecting the compliance tab allows you to upload new compliance and bring up all uploaded compliance items that have been uploaded to the vendor.
