Save and Shortlist Suppliers

With just a few clicks you can save a supplier to your account or create a shortlist. These features allow you to easily send messages and project proposals, download structured data, or just organize potential suppliers to be referenced later.

1. Save and Shortlist

When searching for suppliers using our Supplier Discovery tool lookout for the "Save" and "Select" buttons on each supplier card to easily organize suppliers you're interested in. You have two options to organize potential suppliers: 

  • Click the "Save" button: The supplier will automatically be added to your saved supplier list. You will also be asked if you want to add the supplier to a new or existing shortlist. If you're not quite ready to start organizing suppliers into shortlists, just exit the pop-up.

  • Click the "Select" and "Shortlist" Buttons: Use the "Select" button to choose companies you want to add to your shortlist, then use the "Shortlist" button on the bottom of the page. You will be asked to add the supplier to a new or existing shortlist. Either check the box corresponding to an existing shortlist or name the list to create a new shortlist. Then, click the "Save to Shortlist" button. The supplier will also be automatically added to your saved suppliers list.
