How to create a new partner contact and access
Module Partners can help you to manage information about your external partners (customers/suppliers - see How to create a new partner's card ). You can create your contact people accounts plus you can share with them your TeamGuru documents and data.
The most common external user right is 8D partner (how-to-create-new-supplier-and-his-login-details), which is used for the 8D Reports module. Your supplier will be able to access your 8D Report document and will be able to update its sections online. More information about 8D Reports here: 8D-reports
You can share any other document with your partner using the External Sharing function (how-to-share-the-document-with-external-partner) and predefined external User Role (user-roles).
Please view our video tutorials How to create a new external partner & Share Documents and other tutorials designated for Suppliers
