Your Thomas Account
Your Thomas Account Dashboard is a feature designed to increase the efficiency and productivity of your Thomasnet.com Buyer Experience. You can browse recently created shortlists, recent searches, submitted Requests for Information (RFIs), and more.
Side Panel Navigation
The side panel provides quick links to the information that’s most important to you and your company, which includes:
Projects
Manage all of your submitted project proposals in one place: review submitted proposals, update projects with additional information and files, and respond to quotes. Additionally, you can craft new project proposals in this section.
Messages Inbox
In this section you can manage all of your past messages by replying, closing, or reporting conversations — this is also where you can start new conversations.
Shortlists
On this page, you can easily edit and manage all of your shortlists, in addition to contacting suppliers and requesting supplier summary reports.
Saved Suppliers
Access all of your saved suppliers under the "saved" option on the left. You can also view their profiles, or request a supplier summary report. If you’re further along in your sourcing journey, you can also add companies to a shortlist or contact them directly within the tool.
Pro tip: You can add suppliers to a shortlist or start a project (for up to 5 companies) in one action.
Saved Searches
Saved searches (also under the "saved" option) allow you to access previous searches with all filters applied. If you require a very specific set of certifications or suppliers with unique capabilities, you can save your search to speed up future research.
Downloads
We understand the effort that goes into your supplier research, which is why we offer free supplier summary reports and in-depth, expert-written white papers to help inform your buying experience. As an added bonus, all downloaded these documents are kept in your Thomas Account for reference.
Recent Activity
Need to go back to that last search or supplier? No problem. Access recent past searches and recently viewed suppliers to jump back into your sourcing journey.
Settings & Preferences
Completing your account and keeping it up to date helps us recommend and serve you the most relevant and timely content for your company and career. Under your Thomas Account settings and preferences section, you can personalize your user profile, update your password, and manage your email subscriptions. (Please note you cannot change your account email for the time being, but we are working on updating this soon!)
