Suppliers Spending Report

In Accounts Payable it is often important to rate suppliers, in order to get the better understanding of their spending habits. It could be a good business practice to rate the suppliers, based on the amount spent during the fiscal year. The old by proven 80 / 20 rule will apply in most cases, which means that 20 percent of suppliers provide 80% of purchases. At the same time it is imperative to identify the occasional vendors, who provide goods and services from time to time, or none. Most likely, you will want to analyze the reasons of such behavior and as a result to find alternative suppliers. But how can we spot these bottom-ranking players?
