Create Supplier Evaluation KPIs
Explanation
Use this activity to create KPIs in the system. This activity is intended for a user acting as a Supplier
Relationship Manger/ Procurement Manager or a similar role. Perform this activity from the KPIs page in the
navigator.
Use the New button in the KPIs section to create a new KPI.
- New KPI can be added providing the KPI ID and description.
- Input Value Format decides the format of the KPI value and has three system defined options, Percentage,
Numeric and Text. User can choose one of the options per KPI which will then be used to validate the manually
entered KPI values in the Supplier Performance Evaluation page.
- Input Value Source indicates who or how the value is entered. The possible values are:
- Regular, meaning that the user will enter the values manually.
- B2B, meaning the that KPI will be visible tin the supplier self-service portal (B2B) and entered
by the supplier. If suppliers are not set-up as B2B suppliers the values can be entered manually in B2E.
- Workflow, which indicates that this KPI will be calculated and updated by a specific work flow.
Refer to the technical documentation for information about how to set-up workflows to automatically calculate
and update the KPI values. This indication is just for information, so that the user knows that there are
KPIs that are supposed to be updated automatically.
Note that there are two system defined example KPI's added for workflows to calculate the On Time
Deliveries and the Defect Rate. To enable these KPI's you need to follow the instructions in the
technical documentation.
