in the trail of data

Where are we buying the same item at a different price?
Are suppliers charging us agreed rates?
What is being delivered?
Who are we buying from?
What are we buying?
How much have we paid?
How much have we bought?
Who is buying?
How are we tracking on our rebate targets?
Where are we seeing
non-compliant behaviors like
PO-splitting?
