| # Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) Use this session to: View historical parameter settings, by double-clicking one of the historical parameter sets. Modify current parameter settings, by double-clicking the set without an effective date that appears at the top of the list. If you make the required changes and save the new parameter set, ERP Enterprise performs the following actions: Adds the new set to the history list. Updates the current set (at the top of the list). Note By default, the Description field contains the date and time when the previous parameter set was saved. Related topics Overview of purchase order handling Effective Date The date and time the parameters are valid. The parameters are valid until the effective date of a more recent parameter setting. Goods Amount/Discount on Purchase Orders You can indicate how you want to present the amounts on the purchase orders. Example The order discount for a purchase order is 10%. The purchase order has the following lines:
Quantity | Price | Discount
1 | 100 | 5%
2 | 100 | 10%
    Gross amount = all line amounts (= quantities * prices) = (100 * 1) + (100 * 2) =
    300.00.

    Order line discount amount = 5 + 20 = 25.0

    Order	discount amount = (gross amount - total line discount amount) *
                             order discount	/ 100 = (300 - 25) * 10 / 100 = 27.5

    Total discount amount = total line	discount amount + order discount amount =
                            25 + 27.5 = 52.5.

    Net amount = gross amount - total discount amount = 300 - 52.5 = 247.5

As a result, no back order quantity is calculated. Note If this check box is cleared, and if the Final Receipt check box is selected in the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session, the following applies: If the ordered quantity is more than the received quantity in the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session, the difference between the ordered quantity and the received quantity is not taken into account when logging planned inventory transactions in the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session and the Order - Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1501m000) session. If goods are rejected in the Warehouse Inspections (whinh3122m000) session, the rejected quantity is not taken into account when logging planned inventory transactions in the Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1500m000) session and the Order - Planned Inventory Transactions (whinp1501m000) session. Example Ordered Quantity = 10. ERP Enterprise cannot generate (potential) back orders.
