Smartsheet Multi-Supplier View

A supplier user can view all tasks across all suppliers for which the user has privileges, in both the workbench and Web UI. In other words, users in multiple supplier user groups will be able to view all objects (e.g., products, entities, and assets) linked to those groups without having to toggle between suppliers in the Web UI. This makes it easier to get an overview of tasks for users working across multiple suppliers or multiple Global Location Numbers (GLNs) modeled as STEP suppliers. In addition, users can create references between objects linked to the varying suppliers for which they have access.

This functionality requires that multi-supplier users who initiate products or entities must select the specific supplier for which the products or entities are applicable as they will not necessarily be working within a single supplier. However, as assets may at times be re-used among multiple GLNs / suppliers, the user will have the option to select multiple suppliers for which assets may be uploaded and assigned.

Within the workbench, users can view any objects belonging to the suppliers for which they are a member, regardless of whether the object is linked to one or all suppliers that the user has access to.

To enable this functionality, set the 'Enable all-view for users that are a member of multiple suppliers' parameter to 'Y' as defined in the Web UI Settings topic in the System Setup documentation here.
