Vendor Status Inquiry - Purpose
RS820E
The Vendor Status Inquiry program (RS820E) allows you to inquire upon the activity for a specific purchase order line. Purchase order releases are displayed that indicate the release quantity, due quantity, and schedule quantity (the quantity that has already been sent on a schedule to the vendor). Releases will be displayed in red if the dock date is less than today's date. A release will be displayed in pink if the dock date is less than the firm horizon, which will only happen if Repetitive Supply manages the firm horizon.
Receipts are also displayed that show the receipt number and listed, counted, and accepted quantities. Totals are displayed to show the total purchase quantity, received quantity, and either the advance quantity (early receipts) or backorder quantity (past due releases).
