Suppliers can enjoy a better experience than ever before with this month’s feature releases on SAP Business Network! With the new capabilities being released this month, network suppliers are enabled for greater success with more visibility from prospective buyers as well as into their own performance. Improved lead matching and advanced analytics with KPIs and benchmarks enable our suppliers to take control of their own success with generated leads and insights.
Many suppliers face high operational costs due to inefficient customer transaction performance and lack of key performance indicators (KPIs) needed to measure their critical values. With KPI widgets now available to enterprise account suppliers on their Trading Partner Portal dashboard, suppliers have direct insight into the transaction performance from their customers, allowing them to have a better understanding of, and ultimately improve their operational costs. Additionally, with community benchmarks provided using representative peer data based on geography or industry from suppliers on the network, suppliers can have a basis on which to compare and accurately evaluate their own KPI measurements. KPIs for On-time payment, Days to Pay, and Paid Invoices are available to all network suppliers. Additional KPI measurements and Benchmarks are available to all suppliers with an enterprise account.
