# Welcome

The **Vendor Portal** is a dedicated interface within the Infraon platform that enables external vendors to securely access and manage information related to their association with an organization.

This portal is designed to provide vendors with controlled visibility into relevant records such as contracts, purchase orders, and assets, while ensuring that internal IT operations and sensitive data remain restricted.

The Vendor Portal supports collaboration between organizations and their vendors by offering a centralized location to view assigned information, track updates, and maintain transparency across vendor-related activities.

## Purpose of the Vendor Portal

The Vendor Portal is intended to:

* Enable vendors to view and manage information assigned to their organization
* Provide role-based access to vendor-specific data
* Reduce dependency on internal teams for routine information sharing
* Maintain auditability through activity tracking

All access and visibility within the portal are governed by roles and permissions configured by the Infraon administrator.

## What Vendors Can Access

Depending on the roles assigned, vendor users may be able to access the following information:

* Vendor profile and organizational details
* Associated contracts and contract status
* Purchase orders linked to the vendor
* Assets mapped to the vendor
* Vendor representatives and address details
* Activity logs for actions and updates

Vendors can only view records explicitly linked to their vendor account and permitted by their role.
