Vendor Onboarding
A messy vendor setup leads to payment errors and compliance gaps later. This SOP gives procurement a consistent path to onboard a new supplier with the right documentation and checks before any orders flow.
It collects vendor details and tax documents, loops back for anything missing, verifies references and compliance, and — once approved — sets the vendor up in the accounting system ready for transactions.
