Supplier Relationship Management
In the same way you manage your relationship with your customer, you should have a system in place to do the same with suppliers. Having a full record of items that they supply to you, making Purchase Orders or RFQs easily accessible, gives you more ways in which you can better manage these relationships.
Reporting linked to supplier records could easily give you bargaining power for on-going discounts as your spending increases over time.
Create custom input fields
With the SRM module, you can create custom fields to match the data requirements you have by choosing different input formats such as numbers, single line text, multi-line text, checkboxes, dropdown menus and date fields.
Set payment terms and credit limit for your suppliers
Specify and set your payment terms as well as the credit limit for each supplier that you have listed on your account. The system will then use the payment terms on your purchase orders sent to suppliers.
View your interactions with each supplier
With the SRM module, every task, purchase order or RFQ associated with each supplier is stored in that supplier's unique record. Within the reporting you can even group your reports by suppliers to help with supplier negotiations.
Items and assets made easy
With each record in the SRM module, you can see the items and item categories that your suppliers supply to you. And, if you use our Service Automation, you will see the assets you supplied to customers purchased from that supplier.
