7 Assessment Management

Assessments provide a means for a retailer to assess their suppliers against a set of predefined criteria on an on-going or ad hoc basis. Assessments are made up of a series of questions which may be answered by the suppler as a self-assessment or completed by the retailer.

Templates are available for creating assessments. For information on the templates, see the Oracle Retail Brand Compliance Management Cloud Service Administration Guide. Assessments can be created from within the Site record or from the list of Sites.

To work with assessments, select the Assessments option from the Supplier drop-down list. The Retailer Assessments tab opens. The following information is displayed for each assessment:

  • Supplier Name

  • Supplier Code

  • Site Name

  • Site Code

  • Status

  • Year

  • Period

  • Due Date

  • Assessment Type

  • Person Responsible

  • Completed

  • Assessment Score

To view a assessment, double-click a row in the list. A tab opens with the assessment details.
