Workflows

Workflows are the core way that Supplios structures and automates supplier-related processes. A workflow is a set of tasks that need to be completed by specific users, often in a specific order, in order to complete a process. Workflows can be simple or complex, linear or branching, and can include any combination of internal users and suppliers. Workflows can be used to automate any supplier-related process, such as a supplier onboarding process,a quality claim process, a sourcing event process, or a custom process that is unique to your company.

Workflows are designed to bring structure, visibility, and accountability to supplier-related processes. By using workflows, you can ensure that the right tasks are assigned to the right people at the right time, that nothing falls through the cracks, and that everyone has visibility into the status of the process. Workflows also help to bring supplier work out of scattered email threads, spreadsheets, shared drives,and disconnected systems, and into one structured portal where internal users and suppliers can work from the same process, the same data, and the same set of tasks.
