Can anyone advise what the ‘Qty on Order’ field represents on Supplier Material for Purchase Order, please?

For now it appears to be just an editable, information-only field with no Field Description, same as the Operation No column.

Is that it’s intent?  How peculiar.  I wonder why the heading isn’t just ‘Note’.

@PRODQ I cannot speak for its current intent, I am thinking these could be for some future functionality.

These fields are hidden by default, and I think it is a bug that they can be made visible at all, and that they are editable.

I believe the fields are not used at all. Qty on Order is the technical name of the field normally called Pegged Qty in the client, and I don’t think a supplier material line can have peggings. Operation No would be the operation which to the material line is connected, but that is not used for purchase order material lines either (just shop order material lines).

Thanks, @Björn Hultgren .  Can I report/forward to IFS to add to the “fix at some point” list?

@PRODQ Sure, create a support ticket to have it further investigated
