Supplier Onboarding Guide

Welcome! This guide will walk you through the onboarding process for setting up your supplier account and accessing the platform.

Step 1: Receiving the Activation Email

  • A company representative receives the activation email and forwards it to the person responsible for creating CAP.
  • The recipient should click on the activation link to begin the onboarding process.
  • The activation link remains valid until all steps are completed.
  • If the user closes the window before finishing, clicking the link again will restart the process from the beginning.

Step 2: Email Verification

  1. On the first screen, enter your email address, which will be used as your login credential.
  2. A one-time password (OTP) will be sent to your email.
  3. Enter the OTP in the required field.
  4. The OTP expires in 5 minutes, so complete this step promptly.

Step 3: Creating Your Account

Set Up Your Login Credentials
 

Create a secure password that meets the following requirements:

✔ At least 8 characters long
✔ At least one uppercase letter (A-Z)
✔ At least one lowercase letter (a-z)
✔ At least one number (0-9)
(Optional) May contain one special character (e.g., !, @, #, $)

Before proceeding, you must accept the Terms of Service by clicking on the provided link and agreeing to the terms.


Step 4: Enter Your Details and Company info

Next, provide the following information:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Phone Number
  • Name of the Organization
  • Country and Legal Address

Step 5: Finalizing the Setup

  • Once all required information is entered, the final confirmation screen will appear.
     
  • At this point:
    ✅ The activation link in the email becomes invalid.
    ✅ The request is added to the supplier's list.
    ✅ A notification is sent confirming the account setup.
    ✅ A welcome email is sent with important details.
    ✅ You will be redirected to the login screen to access your new account.
