Order confirmation reminder
In this procedure you can send reminders to suppliers that have not order confirmed purchase orders within a certain number of days after you printed/sent them.
The reminders are loaded in form of documents that you can either print or send by e-mail. The order confirmation reminders are grouped so that there is one document per supplier. If the supplier is marked as a Stray supplier
A supplier from which you rarely make any purchases. A stray supplier is registered with a supplier number used for one-time purchases from different physical suppliers that you therefore do not want to register in the supplier register. For suppliers marked as stray suppliers, you fill in all the fields on the order instead. (a setting in the supplier register), then there is one document per purchase order (since a stray supplier can be different actual suppliers). If the currency or printing method differs between the purchase orders, then there is also one document per purchase order.
Order rows with row status 2 (Printed) can be sent as reminders. However, there is no use sending reminders too near after printing, since the recipient needs some time to order confirm. The setting Days of grace The term days of grace (or grace period) is used at requirements planning in order to calculate rescheduling of actual orders that cover the requirement but that are too late in time, instead of suggesting a new order. for order conf. determines the number of work days that has to pass after the most recent printout date in order for the order to be included in the reminder document. The setting Days between reminders helps you to avoid sending reminders with too short interval.
Orders of the subcontract type are also managed in this procedure. That reminder document also shows some information about the manufacturing order/operation. However, the order type subcontract is not mixed with other order types on the document.
List types

Selection rows
In a list procedure there is always a tab called Selection where you can select data records in different intervals from the database. The data records are then loaded by using the Load button 
in the toolbar of the procedure.
Under Selection rows in the backstage of the procedure, you can choose which selection rows that each list type should have, under the Selection tab in the procedure. In the List type field you select for which list type you want to customize the selection rows.
One table shows selection rows possible to select and one one table shows the selected selection rows. You can add, delete, or move selection rows by dragging and dropping the selection rows with your mouse pointer.
Using the Save button 
you save the selected selection rows.
