This category follows the classic cycle for an order: order, delivery, invoicing. The delivery can be replaced by a direct back-to-back order. The stocks are adjusted upon delivery.
Loan
This order category deals with a loan of goods: order, delivery with stock transfer on an BP location upon validation: the stock of loaned products must necessarily be managed on locations.
It involves the management of a return date with reset of the stock on the original location and does not lead to the invoicing (unless the expected return date is overdue).
Direct invoicing
This order category follows the Order, Invoicing cycle.
The stocks, if managed, are adjusted upon the validation of the invoice.
Open order
This order category is used to plan and schedule the delivery requests for a customer within the framework of a contract.
