Suppliers managing which Buyer Groups they receive Requests from

  • Updated

This article outlines the steps a supplier takes to manage which Buyer Groups can send them requests through a specific Supplier List. This functionality allows suppliers to limit the incoming requests they receive.

Purpose / Intent

  • Audience: Buyer, Approver, Admin

  • Intent: Explain the steps suppliers take to filter which Buyer Groups can send them requests.

  • Scope: One task—managing Buyer Groups for a single list.

Prerequisites

  1. The supplier accesses the Manage buyer groups section under Supplier Lists on their homepage.

  2. They locate the relevant Supplier List they are registered on.

  3. They click the blue numbered button (e.g., 'x' of 'y') next to the list. This button appears only when they have the ability to manage the groups themselves.

    • Note: If they see a single number in the blue button, they cannot manage their own Buying Groups for that list.

  4. On the next screen, they view a list of all Groups that are configured to use that specific Supplier List.

  5. The supplier unchecks the boxes next to the Buying Groups they do not wish to receive requests from.

  6. The supplier must click a final action button (e.g., Save or Apply Changes) to confirm and apply their preferences.

Results / Validation

The supplier will stop receiving requests originating from the unchecked buyer Groups when those groups use that specific Supplier List.
