Collaborate¶
The Collaborate page provides a structured view of your external collaboration relationships — customers, suppliers, and other third parties. It is designed to help teams track and manage cross-organisational interactions within MatStream.
Feature status
The Collaborate page is currently in early development. The structure and navigation are in place; full data integration is being built in upcoming releases.
Accessing Collaborate¶
Navigate to Collaborate from the main workspace navigation bar.
URL: /w/{workspaceSlug}/collaborate
Collaboration structure¶
The left panel shows a tree with three top-level categories:
| Node | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Clients | Customers or external parties you deliver work to |
| Suppliers | Vendors and sub-contractors you source from |
| Third Parties | Other external organisations (regulators, certification bodies, partners) |
Expand a node to see individual partners within that category. Select a partner to see their details in the right panel.
What's coming¶
Planned capabilities for the Collaborate feature:
- Link entities, BOMs, and documents to specific collaboration partners
- Share selected entity data externally with controlled visibility
- Track status of shared items (e.g. "sent to supplier for quote", "awaiting approval")
- Audit trail of cross-organisation data exchanges
