      <Paragraph>Order commitments are logged to projects when a purchase order
		is approved, and are reversed when the goods are received. Commitments are
		useful in tracking future payables on a project.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If you do not require detail tracing of the future payables, to
		limit data growth, in the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm0100s000#tppdm000.lexp" role="formfield">Log Commitments (Purchase Transactions)</Link> field of the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm0100s000" role="session">General Project Parameters (tppdm0100s000)</Link> session, select <Link href="/baanerp/tp/domains/pdm.lexp#pur.deliv" role="manual" Update="No">Delivery</Link> or <Link href="/baanerp/tp/domains/pdm.lexp#not" role="manual" Update="No">Not</Link>.</Paragraph>

		after going live. Even if changed, it will have severe consequences; therefore,
		you must decide between limiting data growth or optimum functionality.</Paragraph>
