Digitally review, approve, or reject certs from supplier

Quick guide to Digitally review, approve, or reject certs from supplier

How can I digitally review, approve, or reject certs from my supplier? 

SmartCert provides a simple process to review, approve, or reject certs from suppliers.The status of each SmartCert will be visible to you on your Received dashboard.

  1. When certs are received, open the SmartCert and click on the document to open the document viewer
  1. Use the search tool to search within the document and confirm the information is provided and accurate
  1. Zoom in on any small text using the (+ or -) magnifiers and hand tool
  1. Scroll through all pages of the document(s)

REJECT CERTS: If information is missing or incorrect, you can click on the Changes Required button and use the chat feature to communicate directly with your supplier on the updates required on the cert package.

Once you have received the updated certs it's easy to send an approval which automatically notes the date and time that it's been approved. This will be effective for any reporting on vendor performance.  

APPROVE CERTS: If the certs are approved, you can click the Approved button, which will serve as a communication tool between your internal team and notify your supplier.

In addition, you can also digitally stamp/sign them by making a copy of the SmartCert for each lot. Copy a SmartCert by clicking on the three dots/ellipsis on the dashboard, or the copy icon in the SmartCert viewer.

From here you can:

  1. add a digital signature 
  1. add an approval stamp 
  1. add or remove pages in the PDF
  1. redact information
