Understanding Related Orders

After you create a rental contract using the Rental Contract Entry program (P54R10), you can generate related orders (sales orders, purchase orders, or service orders) based on the actions that you have defined to use for the rental contract. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Rental Management system interacts with other JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems to generate related orders. In the process, the system passes the rental contract information to the documents associated with the related orders.

For example, to process the delivery of a rental equipment to the customer's location, you generate a sales order using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Rental Management system. The system updates the sales order tables. To install the equipment at the customer location, or to service the equipment out on rent, you generate a work order. To process the return of the equipment to the renting business unit, you create a purchase order.

You cannot generate related orders for reservation contracts.
