• Key Concepts: 
  Scoring range is a feature in SAP MM-PUR Purchasing that allows users to assign numerical values to different criteria when evaluating vendors. This helps to objectively compare vendors and make informed decisions about which one to select. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the scoring range feature, users must first define the criteria they want to evaluate vendors on. This could include things like price, quality, delivery time, etc. Once the criteria have been defined, users can assign numerical values to each one. For example, a vendor with a higher price might be assigned a lower score than one with a lower price. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning numerical values to criteria, it is important to consider how much weight each criterion should have in the overall evaluation. For example, if price is more important than quality, then it should be given a higher score than quality.
