Field Description
Supplier/Vendor Rating Description

These fields display the supplier/vendor rating descriptions as set up on the Manage Supplier Vendor Rating Descriptions screen. You cannot edit these descriptions on this subtask. Rating descriptions are grouped into four categories:

  • Responsiveness/Innovation
  • Customer Service, Quality and Delivery
  • Financial
  • Relationship

Each category has five rating descriptions that you can use to evaluate the supplier/vendor.

Rating fields

To the right of a rating description, enter, or click to select, the vendor rating. Valid values are only those that exist on the Manage Supplier Vendor Rating Codes screen. Codes that display in the lookup have the Show in Lookup check box selected in Manage Supplier Vendor Rating Codes. Only codes that are available in the lookup can be used for new records in Manage Contracts.

You can reuse the same rating code in any and all rating fields, if applicable.

Comments For each of the four rating categories, a comments box is displayed. Use this text box to enter additional comments associated with the rating category for the vendor.
