Purchase Contract Change Requests (tdpur3100m300)

Use this session to view and update change requests for an original (actual) purchase contract.

This session is displayed as a tab in the Purchase Contract (tdpur3600m000) and Purchase Contracts (tdpur8330m000) sessions.

If this session is started in the details mode, purchase contract header (change request) data is displayed.

When you double-click a record, or click the New button, the Purchase Contract Change Request (tdpur3600m100) session is started.

How to use this session

In the details mode, this session provides a side to side view of the field values for the original contract header (on the left) and for the change request header (on the right). You can update a selection of fields for the change request. The availability of fields depends on the status of the actual purchase contract.

Because this session is a copy of the original contract in the Purchase Contracts (tdpur3100m000) session, refer to the Help of that session for an explanation of the fields. In this session, only the fields that are unique or different for the change request are explained.
