Further Sourcing specific information:

• Due to data security and hosting agreements it is currently not possible to display supplier information directly related to requests.

Requests per Status

Gives an overview over all existing requests and their status..

You can get detailed information (e.g. percentage, numbers) by hoovering over specific category.

Due to categorization of Sourcing data as high-security data it is not possible to use the visual filter (by clicking) to filter the supplier list for specific supplier.

There are only statuses shown which are used by the buying company (e.g. if the awarding process is not in use there are no requests with status awarding).

Response Rate per Supplier

Gives general information about the response behavior of suppliers.

Every reaction of the suppliers is considered a response (e.g. Rejection, etc.)

Due to categorization of Sourcing data as high-security data it is not possible to filter for specific requests or their status.

Please note that it is also possible to download the list as xlsx, or csv. To do so, click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the KPI and press download.

Requests per Status and Month

This stacked column chart is an overview of the development of requests over the year accumulated on a monthly base.

Please note that the historical evaluation is currently not full filterable.
