Recompute Blanket Remaining - POUTRC

If you suspect that the Blanket Amount Remaining field on one or more Blanket Purchase Orders is incorrect, run the Recompute Blanket Remaining utility to recalculate these values. The utility can be run for specific POs by using selection criteria or can be run for all POs by skipping the selection criteria. 

This process looks for POs in the Purchasing database with the following characteristics: a type of "B," a non-blank PO number, and a blanket amount greater than zero. For each Blanket PO that matches these criteria, the program will calculate the amount spent against it by summing the value of all items on the Blanket PO itself, followed by the total value of all other PRs that reference the Blanket PO.

If the new blanket amount remaining does not match the old amount, then this fact is printed on the report and the field is updated in the database (if the utility is not being run in trial mode).
