Introduction

Supported Locations

Your organisation must be located in one of the following supported regions before you can connect with a supplier:

How to Access the Manage Supplier Page? 

1. Go to your OpenSolar account.

2. Navigate to Control → Design & Hardware → Manage Supplier.

3. On this page, you’ll see a list of partner suppliers available in your region.

   • Each supplier listed here supports a direct connection with OpenSolar.

4. Review each supplier's details to learn about their offerings and connection requirements.

5. When ready, initiate a connection directly from this page by following the on-screen prompts.

After the supplier connects

A Supplier Connected window opens.

• The title is Supplier Connected.
• The first line is [Supplier name] is connected.
• Then: Rank suppliers from most to least preferred. OpenSolar uses this ranking when selecting hardware in designs and when ordering in Shop.
• Then: Keep Manual Cost first if you maintain prices for active components.

Choose Set Supplier Preferences. That opens Control, then Design & Hardware, then Supplier Preferences. Drag the new supplier above or below Manual Cost, then save.
