Learn how to efficiently add new institutes and manage their associated documentation within the Vestis Labs platform. This guide covers the process of linking existing certificates, creating new entries, and maintaining updated contact information for your records.
From the left sidebar, go to Management → click Institute.
The Institute Management page opens, showing a list of existing institutes (e.g., FSC, OEKO Tex, BUREAU VERITAS Certification) with columns for Status, ID/NB Number, Address, City, Country, Telephone, Website, and Contacts.
Create a New Institute
Click + Add Institute in the top-right corner.
In the Create Institute modal, fill in the Details tab:
- Name (required)
- Status (defaults to Active)
- ID/NB Number
- Address Information (Address, City, Country, Postcode)
- Contact Information (Telephone, Website, Notes)
Click the Contact tab.
Click + Add Contact to add a contact person.

Manage Certificates for an Institute
From the institute list, click the ⋮ (three-dot menu) next to an institute and select View Certificates (or Edit).

To attach an existing certificate, click Link Existing.
In the Link Certificate pop-up, search by name, licence, or type, then click Link next to the desired certificate.
Once linked, the certificate appears in the institute's Certificates list alongside any others.
To add a brand-new certificate instead, click + Create New.

Click Save to add the certificate.
