Create procurement expenses report¶
To create a procurement expenses report, first navigate to Purchase Analysis dashboard.
to open theBy default, the dashboard displays a line chart overview of the Untaxed Total of Purchase Orders (POs) with a Confirmation Date for the current month, or of Requests for Quotation (RFQs) with a status of Draft, Sent, or Cancelled.
Add filters and groups¶
On the top-right, click the (pivot) icon to switch to pivot view.
ちなみに
While the procurement expenses report can also be viewed as a (bar chart), (line chart), or (pie chart), the pivot view provides the most detailed view of the data, and is the recommended starting point.
Remove any default filters from the Search... bar. Then, click the (down) icon to open the drop-down menu that contains the Filters, Group By, and Favorites columns.
注釈
Unless otherwise specified, the report displays data from both RfQs and POs. This can be changed by selecting either Requests for Quotation or Purchase Orders under the Filters column.
Under the Filters column, select a time frame to use for comparison. The report can be filtered by either Order Date or Confirmation Date. Choose one from the list, and click the (down) icon to specify the date range, either by month, quarter, or year.
Next, under the Group by column, select Vendor. Then, select Product Category, which is also located in the Group By column.
注釈
The selections under the Group By heading can be altered, depending on the needs of the individual company. For example, selecting Product, instead of Product Category, provides a more in depth look at the performance of specific items, in place of an entire category.
Next, make a selection under the Comparison heading that appears. These options are only available after the date range is selected under the Filters column, and vary based on that range. Previous Period adds a comparison to the previous period, such as the last month or quarter. Previous Year compares the same time period from the previous year.
注釈
While multiple time-based filters can be added at once, only one comparison can be selected at a time.
