Vanta's Vendor page empowers you to add, edit, and manage vendors effortlessly, all in one place. This powerful tool also enables you to conduct comprehensive security reviews that enable your organization to proactively mitigate risk associated with the vendors you utilize.
Accessing the Managed Vendor's Page
From the left-hand navigation panel, select Vendors
Then select Managed Vendors
From the Managed Vendors page, you can search for Vendors, filter by status, risk level, and priority, and add new Vendors
By clicking a Vendor name, you will be brought to the details of that specific Vendor
Adding & Editing Vendors
To add a new vendor, select + Add Vendor in the top right-hand corner of the page.
Fill out the form with the vendor’s name, category, and other relevant details, then select Add to save the new vendor to your list
To edit a vendor, select the vendor name from your Managed Vendors list
Then, go to the About tab to update the vendor’s details such as name, category, or description. Changes are saved automatically.
Merging Vendors
If you find duplicate vendors, you can merge them to maintain a clean and accurate vendor list.
To merge two vendors:
From the Managed Vendors table, locate the vendor you’d like to merge
Select the three dots on the right side of that vendor row
Choose Merge with another vendor…
In the pop-up modal, choose the vendor you want to merge into from the dropdown list
Select Confirm merge to complete the process
When vendors are merged, Vanta will preserve any security reviews, uploaded evidence, and findings from both vendors. This ensures that no previously collected data or due diligence is lost during the merge.
Please note: The vendor you select in the “To merge into” dropdown will become the primary vendor record moving forward.
