Supplier Performance & Lead Time Report

You need access to advanced reports and the supplier you want to assess.

1. 1
   Open Reports and select Supplier Performance.
2. 2
   Use Filter by date and Select supplier, then click Search.
3. 3
   Compare promised lead time with actual receipt dates and quantities.
4. 4
   Open the orders behind an unusual result and read their requested and actual receipt dates.
5. 5
   Check partial receipts separately from a complete delivery before discussing performance with the supplier.

Lead-time measures depend on the recorded order and receipt dates. A delayed entry can look like a delayed truck.

Lead-time measures depend on dated POs and receipts; an incomplete or cancelled order changes the denominator.

WARNING: Review source orders before using a scorecard to evaluate a supplier.

Review the supplier's orders and receipt dates before using the summary in a performance conversation.

Correct any missing receipt record before using the report in a supplier review.
