Sub-number

Here you enter a sub-number (Sub#) for this particular inquiry. This is used when you want to link several inquiries, for example when sending the same inquiry to several different suppliers. A new inquiry is always given sub-number 1 by default. For an existing inquiry loaded into the window, you can enter another number such as 2. This will create a linked inquiry for the same inquiry number, that is given the sub-number 2. You can then enter other inquiry rows or information in the Inquiry header in the new linked inquiry.

A small icon to the right of the sub-number field shows if it is a new or an existing inquiry.
