Rules and Calculations for setting Preference Limits
Must Meet
As a general rule of thumb, there should be an upper limit of 10% of Must Meets that both the Supplier and Buyer can select. Our general advice is to NOT have a minimum limit on Must Meets.
For example, let’s say you have 200 Buyers and Suppliers, either group should be able to select no more than 20 Must Meets.
Meet Limits
As a general rule of thumb, there should be a minimum of 10% of Meets that both the Supplier and Buyer select. Our general advice is to NOT have a maximum limit on Meets.
For example, let’s say you want to generate 20 Meetings per Supplier. And there are 100 Suppliers. It should be possible to select at least 10 Meet Preferences.
No Thanks Limits
As a general rule of thumb there should not be more than 50% of the meeting slots that need to be generated in No Thanks preferences.
For example, let’s say you want to generate 50 meetings per Supplier. And there are 100 Suppliers. It should not be possible for a Buyer to set more than 25 No Thanks Preferences.
