			<Paragraph>If you use <Link href="/baanerp/td/glossary/glossary#000339" role="glossary">referenced schedules</Link>, no segment sets are used because these schedules are immediately put into a purchase release with the status <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/edi.stat#scheduled" role="enum">Scheduled</GUIRef>. Consequently, the requirement type is always <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/domains/pur.rtyp#firm" role="enum">Firm</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
