Outlets on Grow and Pro tiers
Users with Manage supplier permission
You can use the desktop app to search for suppliers and start placing orders to them, as long as the supplier is a "passive" supplier.
This means that the supplier is simply receiving orders placed by their customers on Nomni Procure, without actively using Procure to manage their orders.
Click Outlets on the sidenav, then select the Suppliers tab, or if your account is linked to multiple outlets, click Actions > View suppliers next to a location (outlet).
You're now seeing the Suppliers tab. Click Add new.
On the Add supplier page, type the supplier company name or the Company Registration Number and click Search.
The results will be displayed and there may be more than 1 matching result. Check the details of the company before selecting Add to My Supplier.
Note: If the supplier is not a "passive" supplier, you will be asked to contact the Procure team to add this supplier.
If you cannot find the supplier here, try using the expanded search option (searching from publicly available business info) or creating the supplier manually. When using either of these options, you may need to enter the details of the supplier, such as the address and its registration number.
You'll be asked to confirm the details of the supplier you're about to add once again. If correct, click Continue to supplier settings.
In the next step, you'll need to enter the following:
the email addresses that will receive your orders.
supplier's minimum order value (MOV) and delivery fee, if any.
days of the week when the supplier makes deliveries and order cut-off times for each of them.
When you're done, click Save.
You've now added this supplier, but you're not done yet! Now you'll have to add items to the market list before you can start placing orders. Click Add/create SKU to start adding items from the supplier's catalogue to the market list or creating them manually.
If you choose to "add from supplier catalogue", select the items by clicking the checkbox, and enter the price as well as the minimum order quantity for each item. Note that not all items may be listed here (If you cannot find some items, let our team know using the live chat and we'll sort you out.).
Click Add to market list & save.
You can now start placing orders to this supplier!
