Creating Reports

This feature allows you to create custom reports to analyse procurement data according to criteria you specify. Many reports can be generated based on the supplier data, which can be used to assess varying aspects of the Preferential Procurement scorecard.

Reports you create are easily accessible for each procurement scorecard, giving you quick access to the data you need.

Once you create a report, it is available for each period for which you upload data, meaning that you only need to create the reports you want ONCE and then ALWAYS have access to them.

2. This action (Step 1) will take you to the screen below. To access the scorecard, click on the applicable scorecard name.
