Do all my suppliers and customers have to be on Timber Chain for me to use it?

No. We realise the fact that some organisations might not have the capacity or the means to upload their data to Timber Chain, therefore, we allow downstream members to upload data on behalf of their upstream suppliers. This ensures that full traceability data is available for due diligence and auditing purposes.

We also provide the means for Timber Chain users to share their outputs (shipments / deliveries / sales / etc.) with their customers who are not members of Timber Chain. This can be done via password-protected share links that are limited to one entity (i.e. 1 shipment / 1 delivery / etc.).
