What Is a Vendor Product Status?
- Laura McWilliams
When viewing a vendor product, there is now a Statuses field. By default, this field will be blank because Isora GRC does not currently have any managed vendor product statuses at initial setup. Superusers can create custom statuses using the API. Once created, they will show up on the UI and can be applied to existing vendor products and new ones going forward.
If you wish to add custom statuses but don’t want to do it yourself via the API, you can email support@saltycloud.com to request the change.
Why Use Statuses?
You can use status fields to track where a given vendor product is in your procurement cycle. You may also have organization-specific items that you want to track with this feature.
NOTE: This feature is under development and we are researching how customers want to use it. If you are using it, we would love to hear about it! Please email laura@saltycloud.com to let me know!
