### ********II. Once the request is sent********

- Your suppliers will receive an email notification to complete the request.
- You will be able to access the sent requests by navigating to **"Requests" **\>\>** "Sent" **and then filtering for **"Request Type" = Supplier Code of Conduct**

#### **Once the request is completed by your suppliers, you can access the results:**

- In the **"Requests"** \>\>** "Sent"** menu by clicking on **"See request results"** in the details of each supplier's completed request.
- In **"Insights"** \>\> **"Requests" **\>\>** "Supplier Code of Conduct"**
