Additional information

 

Max delivery date: it is possible by customization to have the "Max delivery date" field appear. This field is calculated automatically based on the maximum date of the various purchase lines.

To make this field appear, switch to customization mode and add a field. In the "Expression" area of the new field, enter the following value:
        #{formAnimator.bean.maxDeliveryDate}

Context

 

Amounts

If the supplier has a currency that is different from the reference currency, the amounts are displayed in both currencies.

The exchange rate is entered when the order is created, updated when the order is validated, then retained until it is closed.

Update of rate terms: when the user changes the supplier code on the PO, the user is asked if he/she wants to update the rate terms. This processing involves updating all the PRL (when possible) according to the supplier catalog links.

For a PO with a status of "Pending validation," if, on the [General] tab, supplier "A" is replaced with supplier "B," then the user receives the following message: "Do you wish to update the rate terms?".

If the user clicks on No, then no change is made to the PRL.

If the user clicks on Yes, then changes can be made to the PRL.

Exception: there is no updating of the PRL with regard to price, unit, reference, name, discount, and turnaround time if the item/service is referenced several times in the catalog.
