Inbound Purchase Orders
|
For purchased items, an inbound purchase order is proof of when the item will be available to the client. For example, if an item has a 30-day lead time, and a purchase order states it is 40 days out, the purchase order date available is the date to promise. The reason is based upon the assumption that communications have taken place between purchaser and supplier, and that is the quickest the items will be available.
