Blanket Order

Here you enter the blanket order's validity period in the fields Valid from and Valid thru.

When registering purchase orders it is the order date in the header that determines if the order falls within the validity period of an existing blanket order.

Priority

The priority is set to 9 by default, but this can be changed.

Overlapping Blanket Orders

The following rules apply to overlapping blanket orders:

• You can have overlapping blanket orders, that is, blanket orders with the same supplier and part within the same time interval.
• If they have the same Valid from, they must be separated by Priority.
• If they have the same Priority, they must be separated by Valid from.
