The Category Supplier tab under the Categories section offers a detailed view of how different part categories are assigned across suppliers. This tab lists all supplier-category combinations and their associated risk and sourcing details in a tabular format. It supports multi-level analysis of part sourcing by providing metrics related to parts, products, supplier sites, and revenue risk.
