The Purchase by Vendor Report in Zoho Inventory shows the total value of goods purchased from each vendor over a selected time period. It breaks down spend by vendor and can be further filtered by item or date range.
This report is valuable for vendor performance reviews and annual contract negotiations. Knowing your total spend with a vendor gives you leverage to negotiate better pricing, payment terms, or service levels. It also identifies vendor concentration risk if a single supplier represents too large a share of your spend.
Combined with outstanding vendor bill data from Zoho Books, the purchase by vendor report helps your finance team forecast cash outflows and manage working capital by anticipating payment obligations to key vendors.
