SUPPLIER VERIFICATION

Verify the supplier relationship before you approve the order.

Record identity, commercial role, documentation, payment and support information without assuming that a website listing answers every question.

Review five separate layers.

01

Identity

Record the legal or trading name, address, domain and primary commercial contact.

02

Product relationship

Clarify whether the organisation presents itself as manufacturer, distributor, wholesaler, reseller or marketplace.

03

Documentation

List the documents and product-record fields actually available.

04

Commercial process

Confirm quotation, invoice, payment, shipping, issue-resolution and repeat-order routes.

05

Support record

Retain questions, answers, source dates and unresolved points.

Questions a professional buyer may need to resolve.

Signals that require clarification—not automatic accusation.

Identity mismatch

Company, payment and invoicing names do not align.

Listing drift

Product names change between listing, quotation and invoice.

Missing presentation

Quantity, pack or exact variant fields are absent.

Unsupported language

Approval, equivalence or outcome claims lack an identified source.

No exception route

There is no documented receiving or discrepancy process.

A simple supplier-review workflow.

01

Capture

Save the source and access date.

02

Separate identities

Record manufacturer, brand, seller and invoicing entity separately.

03

List evidence

Record available documents and missing fields.

04

Resolve questions

Send one concise question set and retain the response.

05

Decide

Approve, hold or reject internally with the record attached.
