Once a supplier submits a Security Questionnaire, you can view their responses directly from their Supplier Page under the Questionnaire tab.
✅Categories
Questions are organized into categories for easier review. You’ll see each category along with the supplier’s responses.
Tip: Panorays scores not only the full questionnaire but also each category separately, helping you quickly identify high-risk areas.
✅Filters & Search
Make your review even faster using filters or search:
Quick & Advanced Filters: Show only questions answered a certain way, or filter by question type.
Search Bar: Look for specific questions or keywords.
✅Follow-Up Comments
After reviewing a submitted Security Questionnaire, an evaluator may leave follow-up comments or questions.
How You’re Notified
You’ll receive an email notification when a customer adds a comment
Clicking the link in the email will redirect you to the relevant questionnaire
💡 Tip: If you don’t yet have a Panorays account, you’ll need to create one before responding to comments.
Viewing Open Comments
You can also access comments directly from the platform:
Log in to your Panorays account
Navigate to the relevant questionnaire
Look for red notification dots, which indicate open comments
Within the questionnaire, use the filter to display only questions that include comments.
Responding to Comments
You can reply directly within the questionnaire and continue the discussion until all questions are resolved.
✅Modifying Question Scores
Sometimes, you may want to adjust a question’s score. For example, if a response poses a risk you are willing to accept, you can update the score so it has less impact on the supplier’s overall Risk Rating.
✅Requesting an Updated Questionnaire
You can ask suppliers to resubmit an updated questionnaire at any time by clicking on RESEND QUESTIONNAIRE.
All submissions are stored on the Questionnaire page, so you can review past questionnaires:
Click the Submitted Date of a questionnaire.
See a list of older submissions.
Click the date you want to review to open that questionnaire.
✅Downloading Questionnaires
You can download a submitted questionnaire as XLS or PDF:
Non-Confidential PDF: Includes questions, answers, and supplier communication.
Confidential PDF: Adds internal information such as scores, notes, tags, and relationships.
