Further information

Create & Upload your certificates

Before you can upload a certificate into Business Directory, you need to create it.

Create a certificate using the “Create certificate” button.
Add a name to the certificate and select a certificate type. On the next page, you can upload a PDF of your certificate and complete the certificate data.

Once active, the certificate can be edited and assigned to company sites.

Edit created certificates

You can edit a certificate that you previously created if its status is “draft.”

The contact persons of a supplier company will see a list of previously created certificates on the “Certificates” page.
Click on the three-point menu on the “Certificates” page, and select the “Edit” function. This opens the detail view of the certificate.

You can now revise all certificate data here.

Assign created certificates

To view the certificates of a specific site you can open and close the index cards, where every company site is depicted.

You can assign active certificates to your companies by using the “Company assignment” tab. Select a valid certificate by using the checkboxes. Then click the “Assign certificate” button in order to select the right certificate.
Only if the certificate is already active, can be assigned to company sites. In addition, the certificate must be in the status “Valid” or “Valid soon.”

In case the certificate is inactive, it won’t be possible to assign it to any company sites.
