Step 2 – Address Details
This is the address you added in the initial registration. This should be your main company address. This main company address will default to be your address for the following Address Types :- Ordering, Payment, Invoicing, Delivery & E-Sourcing. If you need to add additional addresses to match these types, then you can do so by clicking on the Add Address button.
Step 3 – User Details
The user you created at initial registration will be shown here, however you may add more users if you wish. It will be your responsibility for the maintenance of any users. If a user leaves your company you will need to ensure you disable their account. By default, this user will be the main General, Sales, Payment & E-Procurement Contact. If this is not the case, then Add additional users.
Step 4 – ClassificationsPlease enter the Product Classification(s) for the Goods / Services that you provide. You MUST select at least one Product Classification; you can always enter more or deselect Classifications within the Supplier Portal later. This information will be used by Buyers to search for Suppliers who can provide the Goods and/or Services they require, therefore try to be as accurate as you can when selecting Product Classifications. You can either click on the small triangle to the left of each main Classification Category to then see sub-categories or you can search for the relevant Classification in the search box. Please be as detailed as possible. N.B. If you click too high a classification, you may receive Opportunities from Buyers which may not be relevant.
Step 4 – Classifications
The following example shows that the supplier has selected Plumbing and heating materials. This was done by ticking the relevant box on the left side followed by clicking in the middle. This then transfers this over to the right side.
Step 5 - BuyersThe next screen shows all Buyers who are available on the PROACTIS Portal. Every Buyer you tick will mean that you will receive Opportunities (e.g. Quotations / Tenders) from them so we recommend you tick as many Buyers as you can potentially supply to. At a minimum, please ensure you tick Flintshire County Council & Denbighshire County Council.
Step 6 – Primary Contact DetailsThis was what you registered during initial registration. Check the details are correct.
Step 7 – Terms & Conditions
This step will give you the opportunity to read over the User Licence. Tick the box if you are happy with it.
