Calculating ratings for objective criteria

If you do a full update of the vendor ratings in the Update Vendor Rating (tdpur8850m000) session, the calculation of the ratings for the objective criteria is the second stage in the calculate/update vendor rating procedure.

LN retrieves most of the data that is taken into account in the calculation of objective criteria ratings from the Purchase Order Line History (tdpur4551m000) session. Only purchase orders that are processed in the Process Purchase Orders (tdpur4223m000) session and are within the specified period are taken into account.
