The Supplier Performance panel will rank the suppliers you have purchased from within the date range and current filter criteria selected. The value of the purchases will display as a stacked bar chart to segment the value that has been purchased that arrived within the lead times of the supplier, and the value that was receipted beyond the lead days of the supplier. Hover over the supplier to see a tooltip that indicates the % of orders that are received late.

Click the suppliers bar to load their products into the modelling page, where you may wish to update the lead days setting according to the ‘actual’ performance.

TIP: Keeping the ‘lead days’ value accurate will help you calculate the correct stock controls for a Just-In-Time strategy and will also set an accurate default ETA on your purchase orders.
