Using the Order Accuracy Report
Definitions
Purchase Order (PO)
An order ending in -0-INV is used to reference reported issues or discrepancies. This metric considers only received POs.
Accuracy Rate
A metric that compares issues to their associated POs to determine the accuracy rate for a specific timeframe.
Weighted Accuracy Rate
A weighted average calculation for a rolling 6 months of the Accuracy Rate. This metric allows for improvement to be reflected in the summary, instead of simply averaging rates.
Issue
Any discrepancy, issue, or delay that prevents immediate and normal receipt.
Issues per Line Ratio
A ratio that displays the direct contrast of issues to Lines for a set timeframe. This ratio should be interpreted as ‘Issues per Lines Received.’

Long-Term Trends
