Pre-requisite: Suppliers can only be removed from the platform if they already exist in your company database. Please refer to the "How to view my Suppliers in the Risk Assessment Platform" article to see the list of suppliers known to the platform. If there are no suppliers, then follow the "How to Add Suppliers to the Risk Assessment Platform" article for guidance.

Step 1: Login—The first step is to log in to the Risk Assessment Platform at Analyze.eiq.ai. Use your credentials to access the platform. If you require assistance with your access, contact the RBA Help Desk (HelpDesk@responsiblebusiness.org). 

Step 2: Select Supplier Upload - Once you're logged in, navigate to the supplier upload section. This is where you'll initiate the process of removing suppliers from the platform.

Step 3: Download the Template - Download the template provided in the supplier upload section. The template includes fields for Supplier Name, Internal Tracking Number, Supplier Address, Country/Region, Province, Materiality, Spend, Product or Service, and Supply Chain.

Step 4: Do Not Fill Out the Template - When you open the template, leave all the fields blank. It's important not to enter any information in the template as this will be a blank template for removal purposes.

Step 5: Upload the Blank Template—Return to the platform and upload the blank template you just downloaded without making any changes to it.

Step 6: Submit the Template - Finalize the process by submitting the blank template. This action will override the pre-existing list of suppliers, effectively removing them from the platform.
