🔍 Purpose

Use Action Centre > Requests to:

  • Review requests from other organisations on the platform

  • Accept or Ignore/Reject requests

What are Requests?

Requests can be initiated by either side (suppliers or platform partners). You may see requests relating to:

  • Connections (a request initiated by a supplier to share their organisation profile and related data with the platform member proactively), and/or

  • Linking (a request by a platform partner to the supplier to gain access to the supplier's organisation profile and related data)

Requests are shown newest first and include a Submitted by line and timestamp.

🛠️ Prerequisites

Before you begin:

  • Your user must be associated with an organisation profile in the platform.

  • You must have access to Action Centre.

📝 Step-by-Step Guide

5. To filter through the request types, click on the relevant filters.

(b) Accept or ignore/reject a request

When viewing a request, choose one of the available actions:

  • Accept
    Approves the request and establishes the connection/link so the supplier's organisation profile and assessment data can be viewed by the platform partner.

  • Ignore (or Reject, depending on request type)
    Declines the request and no connection/link is created.


(c) No outstanding requests

If there are no requests requiring action, you will see:


(d) If Requests is unavailable

You will see “Requests unavailable” if the user is not linked to an organisation profile. As requests relate to organisation profiles, the user must be added to an organisation profile to manage requests. Please create one in the Organisations module.
