Call-Off Order

Order-lifecycle concept, the companion to the blanket order, expressed in EDIFACT.

Definition

A call-off renegotiates neither price nor total volume: it states what, how much and when to deliver by drawing down the blanket order. In EANCOM it is carried by an ORDERS whose BGM 1001 is 226 (call-off order), or by the DELFOR message for delivery schedules; it references the blanket order through an RFF segment (qualifier ON).

Origin

Document type coded in UNCL 1001 (Document/message name code) of the UNTDID directory (UN/EDIFACT); the delivery schedule is the UN/CEFACT DELFOR message.
