Editing and deleting vendor comments in Concierge

Updated over 2 months ago

What this feature does

You can edit and delete comments on vendor records in Concierge.

This allows you to:

  • Correct typos or outdated information

  • Remove comments that are no longer relevant or appropriate

  • Maintain a clean, accurate history of vendor interactions

All changes are tracked in a change log, so you still retain an audit trail.

4. Change log and audit trail

Behind the scenes, the system maintains a change log for vendor comments.

The log can show, for example:

  • Original text and edited text

  • Time and date of changes

  • User who made each edit or deletion

This provides:

  • Transparency over how vendor information has evolved

  • Support for internal quality checks and compliance


5. Best practices for managing vendor comments

To keep vendor records useful:

  • Use comments for factual, operationally relevant information (e.g. escalation contacts, service limitations, billing arrangements).

  • Edit comments to:

    • Fix mistakes

    • Clarify ambiguous notes

    • Update old details (e.g. changed contact person)

  • Delete comments only when:

    • They are clearly obsolete or duplicated

    • They were added in error

    • They contain information that should not be stored

If in doubt, prefer editing for clarity rather than deleting, so context isn’t lost.
