Scenario A: The company is already existing on Prewave

If you found the company you want to add as a supplier to your network already on Prewave there are only a few steps to perform.

1. Make sure you have sufficient user permissions from your organisation to add and remove suppliers on Prewave.

💡For this action you will need to have the *Connection Manager Role*. If you do not have this role, ask your application owner/project lead if they can assign you the rights in the necessary role.

2. Go to the target profile of the company that you want to add as a supplier and click on "Add as Supplier" to add the target as a supplier to your network.

3. To obtain the 360° score you will need to request a screening. The Screening process can take up to 48h. You will be informed about the screening status in the Task List (task list icon in the top right)

⚠️ To unlock the full potential of Prewave and keep you master data clean and manageable, don't forget to fill all your supplier relevant information in the data tab!
Your internal supplier id is an important information for later master data updates and cross-system information matching!
Also don't forget to provide spend information in case you you want to profit from the in built impact and action priority logic relevant for regulatory compliance workflows such as the LkSG.

Scenario B: You cannot find the company you want to add as supplier in Prewave

1. Click on the "+" symbol next to the search bar.

2. Enter the mandatory details of the site. It is recommended to add as much details as possible.
