SAP Sourcing allows sourcing enterprises to keep an active list of suppliers for all sourcing modules. Each supplier record contains address, phone, tax, billing, and contact information. Each contact represents a person within a supplier's organization, and one person can serve as the primary contact.

The criteria used to measure supplier performance are determined by metrics. Standard Metrics are identified in Setup and stored as master data.

Metric entry enables you to calculate supplier scores using standard metrics and raw data. The information you enter is used to automatically assign a scorecard to a supplier.

Note Note

You can also enter scores manually in a supplier scorecard, using both standard metrics and custom metrics.

As well as from the Setup area, you can access the Metric Entry List page by choosing Supplier Management in the navigation bar and then choosing Metric Entry from the Performance submenu.
