Blanket Orders

Contents
Blanket orders are basically a type of purchase order template. Each blanket order contains lines for items purchased from a specific supplier. The blanket order includes the same information as a purchase order, such as the supplier’s delivery and payment terms and conditions. You can create as many blanket orders as necessary. Once procurement creates the blanket order using the negotiated prices, quantities, and ordering information, a buyer can place the order when needed by creating a release.
The topics in this section explain how to create blanket orders and change the status of blanket orders, as well as how to create, print, and receive blanket releases.
