QVDMS provides a unique single system overview screen to display the following information on a per contract/order basis:

Incoming Documents: This displays a list of all Assigned vendor documents with their related vendor data requirements. This is vendor data that has been received and allocated to the requirement schedule. The same screen also displays a list of Un-Assigned vendor documents. These are documents received that have not yet been allocated to the schedule for whatever reason.

Distributions: The Distributions section of the system overview has four page frames. A Summary page lists the transmittals or squad checks that have been performed for vendor data submitted for the purchase order/contract. The Detailed page lists the documents on each of these transmittals or squad checks. The Circulation lists page shows who was involved in each of these squad checks and, the Responses page shows the responses sent back to the vendor.

VDR Codes: The VDR Codes section lists the vendor data requirements schedule. Against each requirement it is simple to see at a glance the date on which the latest documents for this requirement were received, whether they have been reviewed and if there has been a response to the vendor.

The system overview is typically used by engineers, document controllers and expeditors to see the current status of vendor data on a per contract basis.
