The Purchasing Statistics Posting Periods category indicates the last purchasing period to be posted and the next period to be posted. The Last Purchasing Period Posted is updated each time the Purchasing Statistics Update Program is run. The Statistics Post Period is updated by the Purchasing Report Request Program whenever a user requests purchasing statistics update processing. If the two periods are not the same, the Purchasing Statistics Update Program is pending processing.

After initial values are entered during installation, this category cannot be updated by the user. Only inquiry transactions are allowed.

This is a required category if the Purchasing application is installed.

This category has a blank key to allow only one record.
