Questionnaire Results (tdpur8193m000)
Use this session to maintain and to display the vendor-rating questionnaire results.
The employees of your company, who are the contacts of your business partners, for example buyers, fill out the questionnaire directly in this session.
You can also print the vendor rating questionnaires in the Vendor Rating Questionnaires (tdpur8454m000) session and give them to your contacts. Your contacts can fill out the questionnaires according to their findings with the business partners concerned. After the printed questionnaires are filled out, you can enter the results in the Questionnaire Results (tdpur8193m000) session.
When you enter questionnaire results for a new business partner/year/period combination, LN automatically lists the subjective criteria that are defined in the Vendor Rating Subjective Criteria (tdpur8190m000) session. For all subjective criteria, the Applicable check box is cleared by default and the Value field is empty.
Before you can use the current session, you must define:
- Subjective criteria in the Vendor Rating Subjective Criteria (tdpur8190m000) session.
- Subjective values in the Vendor Rating Subjective Values (tdpur8192m000) session.
You cannot delete an individual subjective-criterion record. For a business partner/year/period/employee combination, you can only delete all questionnaire results in one go by clicking on the appropriate menu.

- Criterion
- Applicable
-
If this field is set to Yes, the employee will assign a subjective value to the relevant subjective criterion that is linked to the business partner/year/period combination. Various employees can assign a subjective value to the same business partner/year/period/subjective criterion combination. When the vendor rating is calculated, an average of each subjective criterion is calculated for each business partner/year/period combination.
If this field is set to No, the employee will not assign a subjective value to the relevant subjective criterion that is linked to the business partner/year/period combination. If not a single employee has assigned a subjective value to the business partner/year/period/subjective criterion combination, LN cannot calculate an average for the relevant business partner/year/period/subjective criterion combination. If this is true, an error report is generated when calculating the vendor rating.
