Use
You can send messages to vendors urging them to submit outstanding order acknowledgments. You cannot issue such messages with respect to other vendor confirmation categories.
Prerequisites
A prerequisite is that the Acknowledgment requirement indicator has been set in each relevant PO or scheduling agreement item.
Activities
Choose
If the indicator has been set, the system proceeds as follows when the reminder program is run:
It checks whether the confirmation control key has been set:
1. If it has not, it checks whether the acknowledgment number has been entered. If there is no such number, a message urging the vendor to submit the overdue acknowledgment is issued.
2. If it has, the sum of the quantities from all previous order acknowledgments is calculated. If the result is less than the order quantity, an urging message (expediter) is issued.
