Before you begin
  • Use an account with Authorised supplier user and confirm the intended record or setting before making a change.
  • Follow the exact route above. If the screen or action is absent, check module activation, ownership and permissions rather than using another person’s account.
  • Use controlled test data for configuration, integration, email, AI, payment, portal or automation changes before production-wide use.

What this guide covers

Enter supplier_notes with the status update. The instructions reflect the supplied module’s registered menus, controller actions, views, settings and code-backed validation flow.

Exact step-by-step process

  1. Open Supplier Portal → open job → Update Status.
  2. Choose the New, Add, Create or Start action exposed on that screen.
  3. Complete the required fields described below and review any linked record, currency, tax, approval or recipient selection.
  4. Save or submit the form once; correct any validation message rather than bypassing it.
  5. Open the resulting record and verify its number, status, totals, files, activity and downstream links.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • Notes are appended rather than silently replacing existing evidence.
  • Maintenance hub visibility is tied to customer-view access in the registered menu.
  • Supplier completion can create a Pending supplier invoice when one does not already exist.
  • Verify linked CRM invoice/payment records before changing a real-estate payment or payout status.
  • The module hooks after_payment_added to write property-related activity when the payment is linked.

Expected result and verification

  • The supported add supplier completion notes flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
  • The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
  • Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.

Security, privacy and operational checks

  • Apply least privilege to purchasing, vendor, invoice, payment, return, contract and report permissions.
  • Verify vendor identity, bank/payment details, tax, currency, totals and approvals before creating financial commitments.
  • Treat public links, signatures, portal files, attachments and exported reports as controlled business records.
  • Test settings and automated jobs with controlled records before production-wide use.
