Let's get started!
The Overdue Purchase Orders Report provides visibility of all purchase orders that are past their required delivery date but remain Open or Partially Open.
This report helps users to:
Identify suppliers who have missed delivery deadlines.
Monitor overdue purchase orders by supplier, branch, or age.
Analyse supplier delivery performance.
Take corrective action to reduce delays and stock shortages
Getting There
To access the Overdue Purchase Orders report in Service Geeni, follow these steps:
Select the Business Intelligence module from the main menu.
Choose the Reports sub-module.
In the Reports window, navigate to the Stock category.
Click the Overdue Purchase Orders module to open the report.
Add the desired filters (explained below), then click the Apply button to generate the report.
Available Filters and Their Impact
Use the filters at the top of the report to refine which overdue purchase orders are displayed.
Branch: Filters the report by branch or depot. The report automatically uses the branch selected in the main Service Geeni interface. If All Branches is selected, you can manually choose one or more branches. This allows you to focus on a specific branch or review overdue purchase orders across the business.
Tabs Overview
The report includes two visual tabs to support analysis:
View By Age: Displays a pie chart showing how long purchase orders have been overdue based on days past the required date. A supporting table lists each overdue purchase order with key details.
This helps you quickly identify ageing delays and prioritise action.
View By Supplier: Displays a bar chart showing the number of overdue purchase orders per supplier.
This helps you identify suppliers with recurring delays and monitor performance.
