Vendor Management | Vendor Master
One vendor record. Every transaction. One screen.
Bills, POs, payments, contracts and GST posture sit on the same vendor record your AP and procurement teams already post against. KYC posture at the top, transaction history below, performance over time on a chart, risk score in the corner. No second master to reconcile, no nightly sync to debug.

Vendor Master FAQ
What buyers ask.
Can we customise what shows on the Vendor Master page?
Yes. The header KPIs and sections are configurable per role. AP team sees outstanding and payment timing; procurement sees performance and contracts; CFO sees concentration and risk. Configurable per workspace.
How is the risk score computed?
A weighted score across filing posture (GSTR-1 / 3B on time?), payment behaviour (do invoices match POs?), concentration (% of total AP), and dispute history. The weights are adjustable per organisation; the score updates nightly. Available for vendors with at least 3 months of activity.
Does it work for foreign vendors without a GSTIN?
Yes. Foreign vendors skip the GSTIN and MSME checks but still get the bills, payments, contracts and risk surface. Section 195 TDS, DTAA position, TRC and Form 15CA / 15CB metadata appear in place of the GSTIN posture.
Can we export the vendor record for an audit?
Yes. One-click export packages all linked transactions, contracts, KYC documents and the resolved risk score into a hash-verified PDF plus supporting files. Exportable per vendor or in bulk by entity.
