  • Analyze: purchase spend and quantities over time by vendor, item, or location
  • Compare: Orders vs. Receipts vs. Invoices with dedicated KPIs and YoY/PY variants
  • Track: open order amounts, status, and other attributes to monitor inbound pipeline
  • Evaluate: discounts (line and header) and unit prices to identify savings potential
  • Monitor: supplier coverage and item portfolio activity with unique counts and frequencies
