A vendor management system (VMS) helps businesses automate all the processes that involve the non-employee workforce. To be precise, it takes a modular approach for systems like vendor onboarding or making payments. It is a cloud-based software platform that automates, engages, and manages all your current processes. It saves your time and money for your business's future.
Introduction to Vendor Portal
The vendor portal is best at handling the dispatch of material from suppliers to the plant/ warehouse. It works on security issues with the help of its unique identification of each material. The automated processes reduce the time and effort required for the inward activity at the plant/ warehouse. With the help of material verification and validation before dispatch, you can quickly generate an Invoice QR code for the material being dispatched. As a vendor, you can access the purchase order, delivery schedules, invoice status, inspection report, etc. Generates advance shipment notes (ASN) and becomes efficient in all other processes. The best part is it also supports data accuracy and integrity.The business advantage
