The Vacation Button

Under the Vacation button you can enter when the supplier is closed for vacation. If a vacation period has been registered, "#" is shown on the button.

When registering a purchase order row, you will see a warning if you try to register a purchase for a date on which the supplier is closed for vacation

The procedures Requirement Calculation and Run Netting, in the Inventory module, take the vacation periods into consideration during the order registration to make sure that the purchases do not end up on these dates. Instead, the last weekday before the vacation period is suggested.

The Rescheduling Analysis procedure also considers the supplier's vacation period and suggests a date outside this period.

For manual registration in the Register Purchase Order the following applies: if the setting Default arrival date on order rows, under Orders / Inquiries under the Purchase tab in the Settings procedure, is set to Today + lead time and this would lead to a delivery period within the vacation period, a delivery date after the vacation period will be suggested instead (just like in the Refill List - Purchase procedure).

Please note that this feature regarding vacations does not apply to subcontracts.
