Taulia customers are given access to the Buyer UI to view the information that suppliers are viewing. Suppliers should never be given access to the Buyer UI. 

You can add a user within your organization and assign a role depending on what activity you expect the user to perform. You can also deactivate an existing user, which will completely disable the user from logging into the Buyer UI to view supplier information.

Taulia’s Buyer UI has six different user roles with various functionality available. The initial role created will be the Admin user role. This user role will be created with the client identifying an Admin user, and Taulia’s Technical Consultant will create this user role. The Admin will then create all other roles as applicable.  

The six different user roles available on Taulia’s Buyer UI platform are as follows:

• Admin
• Payables User
• Cash Manager
• Supplier Launch Requestor*
• Search Only
• Document Search Only

The functionality for each user role is detailed in the table below: 
 

Admins can add other users by doing the following:

1 - Log in to the Taulia Buyer UI. Go to the gear button on the top right corner of the screen and select User Manager as shown below:



2 - In the User Manager screen, you will have the following options:

• To search for existing users by their email, first name, or last name 
• To view the status of existing users to see if they have already enrolled and started using the Buyer UI
• To view the role of each user and modify/change user roles 
• To invite a new user, as described in the next steps
• To deactivate an existing user, as described in the following section

3 - Click Invite a new User. 



4 - Enter the email address, first name, and last name of the new user and define the user role. 
 

5 - Click Invite New User.

6 - The user will receive an email invitation to enroll on the Buyer UI with the provisioned access. 

Admins can deactivate an existing user by doing the following:

1 - Log in to the Taulia Buyer UI. Go to the gear button on the top right corner of the screen and select User Manager as shown below:



2 - In the User Manager screen, search by email, first name, or last name to pull up the user you want to deactivate. 

3 - Click on the three dots and select Deactivate User.



4 - The user’s status will switch to Disabled, and the user will no longer be able to log into the Buyer UI. Note that the user will not receive a notification that their account is disabled. 

You can reactivate the user in the future to give them access again to the Buyer UI. Click on the three dots and select Reactivate User. Again, the user will not receive a notification that their account has been reactivated. 



In conjunction with your initial Taulia implementation, a Buyer UI admin user was provisioned for your organization. From that point forward, access to the Taulia Buyer UI is completely controlled from within your organization. Taulia does not maintain new users or deactivate current users.

It should be noted that access for suppliers is not controlled through the User Manager tool in the Buyer UI. To enroll a supplier user, initialize them from your ERP and follow the supplier enrollment procedures shared during your initial Taulia implementation. 

Additional FAQs

Why can’t I see all the features shown in the steps above?
You may not have the authorization to perform user maintenance. Only Taulia Buyer UI users with the Admin role have access to add new users or deactivate existing users. Please contact your Taulia Buyer UI administrator to perform the above procedure.
