Using Enterprise Automation in Procurement (Release 9.2 Update)

The JD Edwards Procurement system data can be used to create process flow. A typical end-to-end process flow for the Procure to Pay process is modeled as EnterpriseOne Pages. The end-to-end process flow could drill down to detailed process flows of specific process steps like requisitioning, approving, ordering, receiving, and paying for goods to vendors. There are watchlists on the tile that gives a quick insight to procurement supervisor or manager on critical and important metrics related to the process step associated to the tile.

(Release 9.2 Update) In addition to this, you can also use the EA_Procurement Process page to review these procurement charts to quickly measure the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) of the process:

• Cycle Time: This chart provides Average Number of Days vs. Threshold Days Value in a bar and line graph format. This graph depicts the cycle time of the purchase order line from the requested date to the time it is closed.
• Supplier Delivery Performance: Promised Date vs Actual Delivery of an order line in terms of various timeline parameters in a horizontal bar graph format. This graph depicts the delivery status of an order from a supplier in terms of the percentage delivered before the due date, on the due date, after the due date, and not delivered even past the due date.
• Spend Analysis : This chart provides Supplier Catalog Extended Price vs. Actual Extended Cost by Supplier in a line and bar graph format.
