COMMENTS


Notes

1/1800

If segment LIN is used, do not use LIN01.

2/2960

The SCH segment is used to specify various quantities of items ordered that are to be scheduled. When this segment is used, the unit of measurement code (SCH02) should always be identical to the unit of measurement code in the associated PO1 segment (PO103) and the sum of values of quantity (SCH01) should always equal the quantity ordered (PO102) in the PO1 segment.

3/0100

The number of line items (CTT01) is the accumulation of the number of PO1 segments. If used, hash total (CTT02) is the sum of the value of quantities ordered (PO102) for each PO1 segment.
