01What it is
The report counts material orders placed in the chosen range. An order is late when it was received after the expected delivery date, or when that date has passed and the delivery has still not arrived. Cancelled and returned orders do not count.
A supplier's punctuality is the percentage of orders without a delay. A supplier you ordered nothing from in this range is marked no orders in range and is left out of the average.
The Prices tab compares the latest purchase prices of the same material at different suppliers. People without the finance permission only see punctuality. The report is an extended mode item and belongs to the Advanced finance module.
- PUNCTUALITY
- The percentage of orders delivered on time.
- SPEND
- How much you spend with each supplier.
- PRICE DIFFERENCES
- The same material cheaper at another supplier.
