RE: Vendor Performance Rating System

In our setup we use the first scenario, we want 10,000 total and 1,000
each month on the first of the month.

>From our understanding of the MAPICS vendor performance rating system,
PO's only get including in this calculation if they are closed and
purged to history and that you can't close/purge a PO until all of the
releases are completed.

We are using a weighting factor that puts just about all of the weight
on the last transaction.

Thanks for any information or clarification you can offer.

Vendor performance works with Blanket PO's.   Let me ask you a question,
when the PO is release, are all of the releases included, or are the
releases added after the fact.   Example, I want to purchase 10,000
units
and I want 1,000 on the first of each month for 10 months.  OR, I want
10,000 units, and will advise on release quantities.

The reason I ask is because the second type is actually a contract.

We have been asked by a customer to provide a vendor performance rating
system.  I realize that MAPICS has this capability but in our case it's
not going work properly as it is out of the box.  We use a lot of
blanket POs with releases.  These POs last for 1 year.  The current
vendor rating system in MAPICS requires that POs be closed, something we
can't do because the releases are closed throughout the year.  

 

Any feedback on how you are handling this or how you have heard of
others handling this would be great.  Thanks.
