This article describes the standard graphs for Vendor Management that can be added to a dashboard report from the menu on the left. The name starts with VM; graphs marked VM Geo show the data on a map.
The data in a graph is based on the period selected in the period picker at the top, unless the name of the graph indicates otherwise. If a graph shows no data, the required data is not present in the environment.
Not every graph can be modified. Where it can, the settings include:
- the number of suppliers, cost centres and similar items shown;
- the colours used in the graph;
- the graph type (pie, bar or line);
- the tile size.
More information is available in the article setting up a report.
