The vendor metrics section on the dashboard provides comprehensive insights into vendor performance and status. It is divided into four key reports to help users monitor and evaluate vendor relationships effectively: Vendor Status, Vendor Trades, Vendor Ratings, and Spotlight Vendors.
VENDOR RATINGS
Vendor Ratings on the Dashboard displays performance ratings assigned to vendors based on predefined criteria, such as product quality, delivery timeliness, communication, and overall reliability. Ratings are presented using a 5-star system, with 5 stars representing the highest level of performance and 1 star representing the lowest. Users can use Vendor Ratings to identify vendors that consistently meet or exceed expectations, as well as those that may not be suitable for their company.
