Supplier Score Card

ProcessForce Supplier Score Card is a reporting function based on a weighted supplier scorecard. It helps to evaluate Suppliers' performance based on information about quality, quantity accuracy, and punctuality of deliveries.


warning
  • Delivery and Quantity calculations on Supplier Score Card are made based on Purchase Order and Goods Receipt PO documents. A specific Purchase Order and Goods Receipt PO must be linked for the function to work correctly. It can be done by creating a Goods Receipt Purchase Order by using Copy To option on a Purchase Order or connecting the Purchase Order by Copy From Option on Goods Receipt PO.
  • Dates are compared between lines of documents (not document header dates).

Supplier Score Card

Here, you can define additional settings for a specific Supplier related to delivery and quantity.

  • No of Days Early and No of Days Late define a period before and after the order date in which delivery is still acceptable,

    Example

    • The order date is 16.11.2016
    • No of Days Early: 2
    • No of Days Late: 2
    • Every delivery before 14.11.2016 will be deemed as early, and every delivery after 18.11.2016 will be considered late.
  • Quantity Over % and Quantity Under % define a range of quantity of delivery that is still acceptable.

    Example

    • The ordered quantity is 100.
    • Quantity Over %: 10
    • Quantity Under %: 10
    • Everything delivery less than 90 will be deemed too small, and delivery bigger than 110 will be considered too big.

Summary

Weighted Values - are defined for each weight in General Settings, e.g., No. Of Complaints, No. of Failed QC Tests, No of Returns, etc.

Month to Date - the total number of transactions for the current month; e.g., if today is October 15th, transactions from October 1st to October 15th are taken into account.

Month-to-date refers to the weighted values calculated within the current month.

The Previous Month - the weighted values calculated in the last month.

Year to Date - relates to the total of each month's weighted values to the current month, e.g., January to May, where May is the current month.
