You may block a service provider who is not part of your network to prevent users in your company from sending an invitation to that provider.

Alternately, should you want to block an in-network provider for reasons such as the provider offering unsatisfactory work or causing damages to existing systems, you may delete the provider.

Note: Before you can block a service provider, you must remove the provider from all assigned locations and work orders.

  1. On the Compliance Summary page, click the Contractors tab. The Active Contractors page opens.
  2. Click Blocked Contractors in the top-left corner of the page. The Blocked contractors page appears.

Note: In case an invitation was sent to the service provider before you blocked the provider, the invitation becomes inactive.
