Creating a Buyer’s Negotiation Sheet

You can print out information about vendors and the materials they supply in a buyer's negotiation sheet.

The latter is a summary of important vendor and material data (taken from the purchasing info record), which buyers may need to print out and take with them for the purposes of contract negotiations. The buyer's negotiation sheet contains information such as:

Vendor’s current prices and conditions
Internal consumption/usage statistics on the material
Total value of POs issued to the relevant vendor to date
Vendor evaluations

You can output the buyer’s negotiation sheet in the following forms:

For a material - provides an overview of conditions and ordering transactions with regard to all vendors that have supplied the material and for whom purchasing info records exist
For a vendor - provides ordering data from all purchasing info records relating to the relevant vendor with regard to one or more materials
