# AI Vendor Intake Review with n8n + Jodoo

Use this workflow when a vendor request needs agent-assisted review but the procurement team still needs a durable Jodoo record for risk, compliance documents, ownership, and follow-up.

## What The Workflow Does

1. n8n receives or runs a synthetic vendor intake payload.
2. The workflow reviews category, business need, compliance status, missing documents, risk, owner, and next action.
3. n8n posts structured vendor fields to the Jodoo writeback endpoint.
4. Jodoo stores the review in the Vendor Onboarding Form so procurement can filter by risk, document completeness, recommendation, owner, and onboarding status.

## Jodoo App Pattern

## n8n Workflow Notes

Keep the first version compact:

- Use Webhook node for the sample vendor request.
- Keep the output schema stable before connecting production vendor sources.
- Post JSON to the Jodoo writeback layer with no authentication headers in the proof environment.
- Confirm the response contains a Jodoo data ID and open Jodoo to verify the vendor row.

## Production Notes

Use synthetic vendor data for the first proof run. Before using production supplier data, confirm access control, retention, procurement ownership, and whether tax, banking, or compliance documents require additional review steps.

For production, add retry handling, error notifications, duplicate vendor checks, and human review for high-risk vendors, missing insurance, missing tax forms, or low-confidence recommendations.

## Reuse Checklist

- Replace Atlas Packaging Co. with your real vendor intake source.
- Keep risk, document completeness, recommendation, and onboarding status values aligned with Jodoo options.
- Decide where missing document text should live if your Jodoo app has a dedicated document checklist.
- Confirm n8n parses the Jodoo writeback response.
- Review the first several runs before enabling automatic notifications or approvals.
