A blanket order is a convention settled with a customer corresponding to a commitment of quantities and price for an item over the period of validity of the convention. This practice allows one to avoid creating as many orders as deliveries.
The item code (or number has to be defined).
The order lines of the blanket order correspond to new orders for the vendor (always for the same item).
Lines can be successively (at different times) added into the blanket order and approved one by one.

Once all the lines have been delivered, it is possible to close the blanket order, by the Closing button which is displayed in the page. After closing, the order status is placed to C (closed) and it is no longer possible to add new lines.
