Supplier · Certifications
What the supplier holds that lets us use them, its scope, and what happens when it lapses. The status follows the dates rather than being typed.
Where to find it
- Module: Supply Chain
- Group: More
- Section: Reachable by link
- Screen: Supplier · Certifications
Address in the console: /scm/supplier-certifications
List · 10 columns · 13 fields on its form · 2 of them required
This screen carries no tile on the module page. It is reached from the record it belongs to, from a saved view, or by its address.
What the list shows
These are the columns of the list, in the order they are drawn. Any of them can be sorted on, filtered on, hidden, or exported.
| Column | Kind | Field name |
|---|---|---|
| Supplier | Code | supplier_no |
| Scheme | Text | scheme |
| Certificate | Code | certificate_no |
| Scope | Text | scope |
| Expires | Date | expires_on |
| Status | Status | status |
| Mandatory | Yes or no | is_mandatory |
| On expiry | Status | on_expiry |
| In force from | Date | effective_from |
| Until | Date | effective_to |
The form
What is asked for when a record is created here. Required fields are marked; a choice drawn from a configuration list is one an administrator can extend without a release.
| Field | Type | Choices | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supplier required | Choice | Looked up from existing records | |
| Scheme required | Text | ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS9100, FSSC 22000, ISO 14001… | |
| Certificate number | Text | ||
| Scope | Long text | What it actually covers. A certificate for one site is not a certificate for the company. | |
| Certifying body | Text | ||
| Accreditation body | Text | ||
| Issued | Date | ||
| Expires | Date | ||
| Next surveillance | Date | ||
| Mandatory | Yes or no | ||
| When it lapses | Choice | ignore, warn, block_new_orders, block_all, suspend_supplier | |
| In force from | Date | The date this version of the row takes effect. Leave it as today unless you are dating a change ahead. | |
| Until | Date | Leave empty for open-ended. Setting it ends this version rather than deleting it. |
The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
- Creating a record — required fields, where choices come from, and how the number is allocated.
- Importing a spreadsheet — this screen accepts one, and it runs through the same rules as typing.
