Multi Attribute Scoring

Could you explain this with an example? I see I can set 'Ranking Method' to 'Multiattribute scoring'. But I'm not sure how this works in a simple example.

How does it calculate if Supplier A offers price 500 with score 10 and Supplier B offers price 499 with score 1?

Answer

When the Ranking Method is set to Multi attribute scoring, the rank is based on price over score (i.e. price divided by score) and the supplier with the lowest price over score is ranked number 1. In the customer's example, since 500/10=50 is lower than 499/1=499, Supplier A is ranked number 1.

In Multiattribute scoring, it uses the line price and line attribute score to determine the rank, requirements are not used in the ranking.
