Vendor Delivery Performance Scores
NetSuite enables you to review the available vendor performance scores after you:
-
Create a Purchase Order
-
Release orders from the Order Items page
-
Release orders from the Order Requisitions page
You can open a vendor list to display late delivery scores based on historic transaction analysis. A similar link from an item on the Order Release page displays the Item Record Vendor list with late delivery scores.
Based on this predicted risk, you can re-formulate your purchase order by changing vendor or altering the order requested date.
