Tier and supplier vendors can be added and tracked alongside primary vendors. If a secondary or tier vendor is non-compliant, the primary vendor's compliance features will display as non-compliant too. This enables you to keep track of all vendors--primary and secondary. Greenlight CM™ can import tier vendors from the accounting system, creating an active link between Greenlight CM™ and the data stored in the accounting system. Changes to the tier vendor's address, phone or name made in the accounting system will systematically be updated in Greenlight CM™. Users will also have the option of manually adding tier vendors directly into the Greenlight CM™ module.
