The Best Price Report shows detailed information about vendor inventory records set up in the system. It shows vendor part information including the vendor part #, vendor part description, unit of measurement, lead time, and pricing, as well as information about the last purchase transaction (e.g., last PO cost and date) for an item from a particular vendor.

 

This report has the following uses:

 

To aid in evaluating which vendor offers the best purchase terms for an item.

To serve as a reference in calculating the projected purchase costs of inventory items.
