There are a variety of reasons why you might need to make changes to your profile information. Your profile information may have become incorrect or outdated or your customer may have reviewed your profile, rejected it, and asked you to provide additional information.

Supplier Profiles contain information about your company so you can update your profile at anytime and resubmit it.

»To make changes and resubmit profile information:

1. In the SmartSource Portal Site, select Company Profiles in the left pane. SmartSource displays the Company Profiles page with a list of the profiles that the sponsor company has assigned to your company.

2. Select the name of the profile you want to re-submit.
3. The SmartSource Portal displays the profile form in the right pane. Use the scroll bar to view the entire profile. Click the Edit this Company Profile link at the top of the page.
4. SmartSource makes fields in the profile form available for editing. Modify answers to questions. Questions numbered in red with an asterisk are required. Questions marked with a red X have been rejected by the sponsor company. SmartSource will not accept your responses unless all required questions are completed. To attach a document to a question, see Attaching a File to a Survey. To submit a new revision of a file you already attached, see Uploading New Revisions of Attached Files.

5. Click the Save Changes link in the Command areas at the top and bottom of the profile.
6. Click the I am Finished -- Submit my Response link located at the top and bottom of the profile. If the profile was required, you will be able to access auctions and surveys as soon as you submit.

Important Information about Profile Fields and Attached Documents

A single field can be used multiple places in different profiles. Any information that is entered into a profile field is entered at the field level so it will automatically be inserted wherever that field is used. For instance if Company Name and Company Address fields have been previously submitted in another profile, that information will be automatically filled in when you open a second profile containing those fields. If you change the information in the field in one profile it's automatically changed wherever that field is used. Attachments to fields are shared in the same way. If you attach a customer reference to a Third-Party Reference field in one profile the same document will be attached and available everywhere the Third-Party Reference field is used.
