Vendor Management

Describes the vendor management process.

Vendors are managed through eLIMS to ensure that the information of the supplier is recorded within the system. Vendor information needs to be updated in the system when buying items to be stocked or used.

The section assumes that the logged-in user has access to vendor management. In the eLIMS system, vendor information is usually managed centrally at the procurement department only.

Creating Vendors

To create a vendor, the user needs to go to the vendor creation form. The form can be found by visiting the "Add Vendor" menu under Vendors.
