Reference

Initialize Directory Records

Each organization in the system has a tab for the supplier directory. If an organization's initialized checkbox in the tab is clear, running this addon will initialize all the data in the Directory tab from other fields in the record.

Supplier Directory Settings

Use this tool to configure custom settings for the Supplier Directory.

Supplier Directory Vanity URL Processor

This tool creates a custom vanity URL on the website for every organization in the system. The URL is constructed as [Supplier Directory Vanity URL Prefix] + [Organization Name], then special characters such as & and ? are replaced with dashes. The [Supplier Directory Vanity URL Prefix] is a value you can set in the Supplier Directory Settings. Be careful to ensure the final name is not used on the website for other pages or services.

for example, if you set the [Supplier Directory Vanity URL Prefix] = "Directory/" and you have a organization named "ACME Shoes", a URL will be created http://www.yoursite.com/Directory/ACME-Shoes
