Custom Attributes and Questionnaire Autofill

This release includes two brand new features which will help accelerate and streamline your vendor management and risk assessment processes.

Custom Attributes

Store additional structured information to help manage the relationship with your vendors and easily sort and group them by common characteristics. This will enable more effective vendor management within the UpGuard platform.

You can define the custom attributes you need, so you can store the information that’s important to your organization. For example, use custom attributes such as Internal Owner, Contract End Date and Cost Center to help manage your vendor relationships within the UpGuard platform.

Check out How to use Custom Vendor Attributes for help setting up and getting the most out of this feature.

Questionnaire Autofill

Filling out questionnaires can be a time-consuming and repetitive task. To greatly reduce the time involved, we are introducing a Questionnaire Autofill feature that scans previous questionnaire responses from a vendor’s organization and suggests autofill answers. Respondents can then easily review previous responses and use them in the current questionnaire where relevant. This will help your vendors respond to questionnaires faster, making it quicker and easier for you to complete vendor risk assessments.
