Overview

A Lite Supplier is a set of details for a supplier you wish to purchase from. These details, including the purchase order email address, are entered or uploaded and managed by users with the Community Administrator or Community Supplier Administrator role. This means the supplier has no access to Unimarket however, buyers are able to create POs with manually entered (non-catalog) items to send via email.

If you only have one or two Lite Suppliers to add, this method may be easier than uploading them using a CSV file, which is better for bulk entries. See steps below for instructions:

Creating a Lite Supplier

1. Go to the Administration module > Administration > Suppliers > Create Lite.
2. Click +Create Lite Supplier>>
3. A pop up window will appear where you can enter the suppliers details.
   
   

4. The Company and Currency fields are required. If you want orders placed in Unimarket to be sent to the supplier, you will need to enter an Order Email address.

5. Click Add to finish or for additional Lite Suppliers click Add More for the pop up to enter your supplier.

Tips

• For the two addresses if any part is entered then the entire address must be valid.
