Once a vendor has been invited to Felix, their profile will be assigned a distinct status. This status reflects the vendor's progress towards onboarding for your organisation, as well as their elegibility for sourcing activities.
Note: Some of the Felix vendor statuses are subject to custom configuration and could differ to those below.
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Invited | If a vendor has an Invited status, it means that they have received an invitation to join your organisation on Felix or the vendor has completed the first step of self-registration through your organisation's public registration page. |
| Pending Approval | A vendor will show a Pending Approval status after they have submitted an application to your organisation on Felix. A user from your organisation will be required to review and approve the application. Having a Pending Approval status precludes a vendor from amending their questionnaire responses or updating their vendor details. |
| Declined | If a vendor has a Declined status, it means their application has been rejected by a staff user from your organisation. This can be a conditional decline - for example, due to insufficient documentation provided during the onboarding process, or inadequate responses to the questionnaire. |
| Approved | The Approved status will show for a vendor if they have submitted an application to your organisation on Felix and it has been approved by a staff user from your organisation. Having an Approved status precludes the vendor from amending their questionnaire responses or updating their vendor details. |
| Suspended | The Suspended status will show if the vendor was previously approved but has since been suspended. |
| Prevented from Applying | Prevented from Applying is an unconditional decline of a vendor's application request. This status is terminal. The vendor will not be able to re-submit their application to your organisation. |
Note: Once a vendor is Declined, their previous submission will be unlocked for editing. You are not required to unlock the vendor, unless the panel registration dates for this panel have closed. Panel registration dates are controlled by their respective feature and can be configured by your organisation.

Note: To automatically suspend a vendor due to expired compliance documents, the Automatic Suspension feature is required to be enabled for your organisation.
