How to analyze the performance of my vendors?
|
||||
=============================================
|
||||
=============================================
|
||||
|
||||
If your company regularly buys products from several suppliers, it would
|
||||
be useful to get statistics on your purchases. There are several reasons
|
||||
to track and analyze your vendor’s performance :
|
||||
|
||||
- You can see how dependant from a supplier your company is;
|
||||
|
||||
- you can negotiate discounts on prices;
|
||||
|
||||
- You can check the average delivery time per supplier;
|
||||
|
||||
- Etc.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, an IT products reseller that issues dozens of purchase
|
||||
orders to several suppliers each week may want to measure for each
|
||||
product the total price paid for each vendor and the delivery delay. The
|
||||
insights gathered by the company will help it to better analyze,
|
||||
forecast and plan their future orders.
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
Install the Purchase Management module
|
||||
--------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
From the **Apps** menu, search and install the **Purchase Management**
|
||||
module.

|
||||
|
||||
Issue some purchase orders
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, in order to analyze your vendors' performance, you need to
|
||||
issue some **Request For Quotations** (RfQ) and confirm some **Purchase
|
||||
Orders**. If you want to know how to generate a purchase order, please
|
||||
read the documentation :doc:`../../overview/process/from_po_to_invoice`.
|
||||
|
||||
Analyzing your vendors
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
Generate flexible reports
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
You have access to your vendors' performances on the Reports menu.
|
||||
By default, the report groups all your purchase orders on a pivot table
|
||||
by **total price**, **product quantity** and **average price** for the **each month**
|
||||
and for **each supplier**. Simply by accessing this basic report, you can
|
||||
get a quick overview of your actual performance. You can add a lot of
|
||||
extra data to your report by clicking on the **Measures** icon.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
By clicking on the **+** and **-** icons, you can drill up and down
|
||||
your report in order to change the way your information is displayed.
|
||||
For example, if I want to see all the products bought for the current
|
||||
month, I need to click on the **+** icon on the vertical axis and
|
||||
then on “Products”.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on the data you want to highlight, you may need to display
|
||||
your reports in a more visual view. You can transform your report in
|
||||
just a click in 3 graph views : a **Pie Chart**, a **Bar Chart** and a **Line
|
||||
Chart**: These views are accessible through the icons highlighted on the
|
||||
screenshot below.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
On the contrary to the pivot table, a graph can only
|
||||
be computed with one dependent and one independent measure.
|
||||
|
||||
Customize reports
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
You can easily customize your purchase reports depending on your needs.
|
||||
To do so, use the **Advanced search view** located in the right hand side
|
||||
of your screen, by clicking on the magnifying glass icon at the end of
|
||||
the search bar button. This function allows you to highlight only
|
||||
selected data on your report. The **filters** option is very useful in
|
||||
order to display some categories of datas, while the **Group by** option
|
||||
improves the readability of your reports. Note that you can filter and
|
||||
group by any existing field, making your customization very flexible and
|
||||
powerful.

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
You can save and reuse any customized filter by clicking
|
||||
on **Favorites** from the **Advanced search view** and
|
||||
then on **Save current search**. The saved filter will
|
||||
then be accessible from the **Favorites** menu.
