In the Fintech Portal, manage locations and the distributors or vendors associated with them.
In Locations > My Locations, you can:
- Manage your locations and their associated vendors.
- Drill into a location's details (such as contacts for that location, liquor license info, etc.).
- View invoices received by the location, as well as their payment method.
- Add vendors to a location.
The grid provides a snapshot of location information, including name, ID, address, number of vendors and their status. The status column groups the total active vendors by status type:
Status |
Description |
Awaiting Vendor Approval | When a vendor needs to approve the requested relationship from a retailer through the Fintech Portal. |
Awaiting Retailer Confirmation | When a retailer needs to approve a relationship request from a vendor within the portal. |
Pending Payment Verification |
The retailer's bank is reviewing the vendor's bank account information. This is only applicable if the retailers bank account is using debit or ACH filters. |
Active Not Processing | When a retailer-vendor relationship has been established but invoices have yet to be sent, reviewed, and paid. |
Processing | Invoices are successfully being sent by the vendor and the paid through the portal by the retailer. |
Inactive | The retailer or vendor has requested to stop processing invoices through the portal. |
Declined | The retailer or vendor has declined to set up a relationship with one another through the portal. |
💡 Regardless of whether the location has received invoices, the status of a vendor remains Active until either the location or the vendor requests a change.
