# Supplier approval process

The standard approval rule for Suppliers is that the line manager of the Supplier Owner will need to approve them.

The Supplier Owner is the user who created the supplier. 

 

However, if the Supplier [fills in the Supplier form themselves](https://help.yordex.com/knowledge/suppliers-providing-their-own-company-information?hsLang=en), the user who they filled in as their main contact at your company is both their line manager and approver.

 

Please [contact us](https://help.yordex.com/kb-tickets/new?hsLang=en) to set up other supplier approval rules.
