In this page, you can define index or rating values for the user-defined parameters, based on which the supplier rating can be computed. You can select the supplier location, type and category of the supplier and also the user-defined parameter for which you wish to set or modify the index or rating values.

If the index value is newly defined for the user-defined parameter for the specified supplier and parameter, you can enter the index value and remarks. If the index value is already defined, the system allows you to modify the index value and remarks. The system saves the login ID of the user along with the modified details.
