| # Setting up a delivery contract If you specify a contract and you already know the time-phased delivery details, you can create a delivery contract instead of a purchase schedule. A delivery contract is not a real schedule, but a schedule solution to generate purchase orders in time. To set up a delivery contract, complete the following steps: Create a purchase contract in the Purchase Contracts (tdpur3100m000) session. Create a purchase contract line in the Purchase Contract Lines (tdpur3101m000) session, with: The Apply Contract for All Items in Price Group check box cleared. The Purchase Schedule in use check box cleared. The Delivery Contract Available check box selected. In the Purchase Contract Lines (tdpur3101m000) session, choose Delivery Contract. As a result, the Delivery Contract (tdpur3104m000) session starts. In the Delivery Contract (tdpur3104m000) session, you can specify the date on which delivery must take place and the quantities to be delivered on the specified dates. To generate purchase orders for the planned deliveries, in the Delivery Contract (tdpur3104m000) session, choose Generate Purchase Orders on the appropriate menu. The Generate Purchase Orders (tdpur3204m000) session starts in which you can generate purchase orders for the planned deliveries. You can only generate purchase orders for the planned deliveries if both the purchase contract and the purchase contract line have the Active status. Related topics Purchase contracts |
