Vendor Performance Reporting
- You may wish to report exceptional or unsatisfactory vendor performance. The Vendor Performance Report functionality allows you to do either.
- You may file a report for documentation purposes or request follow up from a buyer in Purchasing.
- You may use the Vendor Performance Report (VPR) functionality to report vendor performance in DaFIS and UCD Buy. You can also use the VPR to report vendor performance for transactions made on a Purchasing Card.
- On the Document Search screen, search for a procurement document (Departmental Purchase Order (DPO), Purchase Order/Business Agreement (PO), Non Purchasing Agreement(NPA)) or AP Vendor Invoice (VI) for which you would like to report on vendor performance.
- In the Search Results, right click on the Tracking Number field and choose Vendor Performance from the menu.
- The Vendor Performance Report (VPR) screen will appear. Note: If you haven't previously logged in with your campus user ID and Kerberos password, you will be required to do so before viewing/completing the VPR screen.
- The order and vendor information will default on the VPR screen. Complete the appropriate fields and click on the Save button in order to submit the request.
- Note: You can also access the VPR functionality by right clicking on a purchase order number within a DPO, PO, or NPA, or by right clicking on the vendor number within a VI, AP Direct Charge, Travel Expense Voucher (TEV), or Entertainment Expense Voucher (EEV).
- From the UCD Buy welcome page, choose MM Decision Support on the Links menu.
- Choose one of the Order Lookup options from the MM Decision Support menu.
- Select the desired search criteria.
- Click on the order number for which you would like to report on vendor performance.
- Click on the Submit Vendor Report button to access and complete the VPR screen.
- Note: The VPR functionality is not available for in-house vendors, such as Central Storehouse and Supply Express. Feedback for these departments should be directed to the appropriate contact.
Note: If reporting vendor performance for a Purchasing Card, you may access the VPR directly by going to the FIS Web Applications menu in DaFIS Decision Support or by using the link provided on the Purchasing and DaFIS web sites.
When reporting vendor performance for a DaFIS or UCD Buy vendor, it is preferable to access the VPR from DaFIS TP or UCD Buy as this will automatically default the order number and vendor information needed for Purchasing.
