What is Vendoro
How Vendoro works for buyers and suppliers, how to find your way around, and how access is controlled.
Vendoro is procurement software for multi-location operators, built first for nursing homes and assisted living. One order runs through one system: a requisition on the unit, approval, a purchase order to the supplier, receiving, the invoice, and an approved batch for accounting. Budgets are checked along the way.
Two places to work
- The buyer app, for your staff: unit managers who order, administrators who approve, purchasing, receiving and accounts payable.
- The supplier portal at vendor.vendoro.ai, where distributors and vendors keep their catalog and prices, confirm and ship orders, and submit invoices.

Next to your name at the bottom left: dark mode, Out of office (for people who approve), the Settings gear and sign out.
How access works
- Users see only the locations they are assigned to, unless they have unrestricted access. A user with no locations assigned sees all of them.
- Roles decide what each person can do, and you only see the menu items your role allows. See Users and roles.
- Times show in your company’s time zone, set under Settings.
- Each sign-in asks for a 6-digit code sent by email. Tick Remember this device to skip it next time.
