F43121 column NLIN

Hi everyone,
I was wondering what is the use of the field NLIN (Number of Line On Order) in the file F43121 (Purchase Order Receiver File) and why does this field is an element of the table's primary key ?

Thanks

François

François,

Welcome to the JDEList. First, I'd recommend you read the "JDEList discussion groups (forums) netiquette" document, which among other things, will explain the importance of including your configuration in your signature block for postings.

To answer your question, the NLIN is used to differentiate unique receipts of the same PO line. So if you had a PO line for a quantity of 100, and received a partial shipment of 60, that record's NLIN would be 1; a second shipment of 40 would have an NLIN of 2.

Again, welcome to the JDEList!
