  2. On the Categorize Participant tab click on the drop down menu and select the options relevant to your supplier.

supplier goes through
  1. If you have setup Custom Fields you can select these on the Custom Fields tab.

  1. On the Questionnaires tab you can choose which questionnaires are going to be assigned to the supplier. You may see some have been automatically selected already based on the tags you chose for the supplier.
