Web Template: Vendor Comparison – Vendor List 

Technical Name: 0TPL_SR_VE_SCORES_VL

Use

The operational purchaser can use this Web template to display the vendor evaluation scores for the various vendors. As well as the weighted total scores, the average criteria scores are displayed per vendor. You can choose to view criteria scores in two different ways. On the one hand, the individual criteria are represented in a four-level grouping hierarchy that is relevant for the calculation of the overall score. (Web report: Criteria evaluation (in grouping hierarchy)). This way, you can examine criteria evaluations of relevant evaluation groups more precisely and can hide irrelevant groups temporarily. On the other hand, you can also display the individual criteria sorted according to the event (confirmation in Enterprise Buyer, incoming invoice in Enterprise Buyer or vendor list) that corresponds with the evaluation (Web report: Criteria evaluation (by event)).

You can call the Web template from the Vendor List and from Process Contracts in Enterprise Buyer. The context data from Enterprise Buyer (vendors and product categories, for example) is used to filter the displayed report data. The filtered vendor evaluation data supplies you with relevant information.

Integration

The Web template is assigned to the role SAP_BW_SRM_VENDOR_EVAL (Vendor Evaluation) in the Vendor List folder.

Prerequisites

The role SAP_BW_SRM_VENDOR EVAL has to be activated.

Features

When you call the Web template, a dialog box appears. Here, you specify whether the evaluation is to occur in cross-system fashion, or for a certain system.

For a level 3 group, you can branch to the Web template Group Scores (Navigation Level 2) (0TPL_SR_VE_SCORES_GROUPLEV2) that furnishes the level 2 groups with scores, from the Overall Score Web report. In this way, you can analyze the individual groups of level 2 that lead to evaluation in group 3.

You can branch to the records on document level that lead to the evaluation of the selected criterion, from the criteria evaluation Web reports.

From the Web template Vendor Comparison (Manual Evaluation) – Vendor List, you can branch to the following vendor evaluation Web templates under Further Analyses:

·        Group Scores Level 1 (0TPL_SR_VE_SCORES_LEV1)

·        Group Scores Level 2 (0TPL_SR_VE_SCORES_LEV2)

·        Top 20 Vendors – Vendor List (0TPL_SR_VE_TOPVENDORS_VL)

·        Vendor Outlier List (0TPL_SR_VE_OUTLIER)

·        Performance Indicators (0WEB_SRM_VENDOR_EVAL_VL)

·        Vendor Profile – Vendor List (0TPL_SR_VE_PROFILE_VL)

·        Trend Comparison – Vendor List (0TPL_SR_VE_HISTORYVEND)

·        Vendor Information (0WEB_SRM_VENDOR_INFO_VL)

If the Web template is called from Enterprise Buyer, context data like vendors, product categories, and products is transferred from the application (Vendor List, Process Contract, for example). The reports contained in the Web templates are filtered using this context data.
