Distributors submit and track compliance documents while admins review, validate and onboard, all in one auditable portal.

The business problem

Distributor compliance is hard to control

Across a global distributor network, compliance is often run on emails, shared drives and spreadsheets, so it's hard to know what's received, what's missing, and what's expired.

  • No single view of documents received vs. missing per distributor
  • Expiries slip through, renewals happen late or not at all
  • Review sign-off scattered across functions, with weak audit trails
  • Inconsistent standards across regions and distributor types
Our solution

One structured, auditable portal

A cloud-native portal that defines the required documents per distributor type, collects them through secure uploads, routes them to the right reviewers, and tracks every expiry automatically.

  • Required documents defined per distributor type and market
  • Role-based review, Quality, Legal, Finance, Regulatory, PV, Medical
  • Approve / reject with comments and a full audit trail
  • Automatic expiry tracking with reminders before renewal is due
The compliance lifecycle

From onboarding to renewal

Every document follows a governed path, nothing is missed, and every action is recorded.

STEP 1

Onboard

Admins onboard a distributor and set the required documents for their type and market.

STEP 2

Upload

Distributors upload documents and proofs through their secure portal.

STEP 3

Review

The right iNova function approves or rejects with auditable comments; rejections prompt re-upload.

STEP 4

Track & renew

Expiries are tracked automatically; reminders go out ahead of time so renewals happen in time.
