Evaluate Suppliers
In the context of audits, the regular assessment of suppliers can be requested. For this purpose, the Labordatenbank offers the function to evaluate all suppliers with various assessment categories.
Suppliers are stored in the customer list. Call up the customer list via the navigation bar Customers and search for the relevant supplier using the search function (see instructions Search customers).
Select the supplier to be evaluated and click on Evaluation at the top of the bar.
Then you can Assign a new rating. To do this, select a rating criterion and assign the rating from 5 levels (or 3 levels if your company works with only 3 levels). You can also add a note.
After Saving (or Save & continue to the next criterion), this rating now appears in the customer detail view with the color markings red (bad), yellow (medium) and green (good).
