When a supplier sends a job back, you can rate their work by adding an evaluation. This will allow you to find the best suppliers for all your jobs in the future.
Define/edit evaluation criteria
You can choose the criteria you want to use to evaluate your suppliers. For that, you have to go to Settings > System values > Evaluation criteria.
We already added a list of criteria, with a description for each one of them. You can edit, disable or delete criteria by clicking on the three dots at the end of the line, or you can add new criteria to evaluate your suppliers by clicking on the blue button at the top.
Disabling a criterion means the criterion will remain in the general list of criteria (screenshot above) but it won't be available when you actually enter an evaluation for a supplier.
Evaluate a supplier
To evaluate a supplier, you have to click on 'Add an evaluation' in the details of the outsourcing concerned (Overview panel of the outsourcing). In this case, the evaluation will be linked to this outsourcing in particular. Note: To be able to add an evaluation from the outsourcing screen, the outsourcing has to be defined as Finished or Ready for review (the work of the supplier needs to be finished for you to rate it).
You can also add an evaluation from the Evaluations tab of the supplier, but in this case the evaluation won't be linked to an outsourcing in particular.
In the details of the outsourcing:
In the Evaluations tab of the supplier under Suppliers:
In both cases, you arrive in the evaluation screen, where you can find all the criteria you defined under Settings > System values > Evaluation criteria. You can evaluate the work of the supplier for each of these criteria by clicking on the little stars. The little 'i' next to each criterion contains the description of the criterion. You can also untick the criteria of your choice if they don't apply to this outsourcing in particular and add a comment about the evaluation. When you're done, click on Save.
By clicking on 'Manage your evaluation criteria' at the bottom, you will be redirected to your general list of criteria under Settings > System values > Evaluation criteria.
See the evaluations of a supplier
You can find all the evaluations of a supplier in the Evaluations tab of this supplier. You first see an average evaluation (an average of all the stars you gave this supplier in all your evaluations), and then (at the bottom) all the previous evaluations you entered for them.
If an evaluation is linked to a job, you can click on the three dots at the end of the line to view the linked job. You can also use the three dots to view, edit or delete the evaluation.
Select a supplier for an outsourcing based on their rating
You can sort the list of suppliers for an outsourcing based on the rating of the suppliers by clicking on the arrow next to the column title 'Rating'. The suppliers with the best average evaluation will then appear first.
