Providing vendors and suppliers with access to purchase order information through a secure online portal can enhance transparency and streamline communication. The **Portal Access to Purchase** feature allows businesses to grant vendors access to their purchase orders, allowing them to view order details, track progress, and access key documents directly from the portal. This feature improves supplier relationships by enabling real-time updates and reducing the need for manual follow-up.
This feature is particularly beneficial for businesses that manage a large volume of purchase orders or require close coordination with their suppliers. By giving vendors access to purchase orders through the portal, the **Portal Access to Purchase** feature ensures that all parties are aligned on order status, delivery timelines, and any updates. It reduces the administrative workload by automating the sharing of purchase order information, improving communication, and helping vendors fulfill orders more efficiently.

This feature is particularly valuable for businesses that work with multiple suppliers or need to manage frequent orders. For example, a manufacturing company that frequently orders raw materials from multiple vendors can use the **Portal Access to Purchase** feature to give suppliers real-time access to their purchase orders. Vendors can log into the portal, view the order details, check delivery schedules, and access any necessary documents, reducing the need for manual updates and improving order fulfillment.
