Keeping track of every vendor your company works with helps you stay organized and maintain a clear audit trail. This article is for admins who want to make sure all of their vendors integrated and non-integrated are captured in Vanta so that the Vendor List Maintained test passes smoothly.
Add a Non-Integrated Vendor
Select + Add Vendor in the top right corner
Enter the Vendor Details
Click Add Vendor
Edit an Existing Vendor
On the Vendors page, click the name of the vendor you want to update
Change any details you need (account manager, services, etc.)
Click Save
Deactivate the Vendor List Maintained Test
If your company only uses vendors that Vanta already integrates with, you can turn off this test:
Go to Settings > Tests
Find Vendor List Maintained
Toggle Off
Common Reasons For Failure:
You haven’t manually added any vendors that Vanta doesn’t integrate with
You added vendors but didn’t include all required fields (name, category, services)
You need to keep your list up to date whenever you start working with a new non-integrated vendor
Keeping your vendor list current ensures you’ve got everything in one place and helps Vanta track compliance across all your third-party relationships.
