Load SOAFORWARD

When loading a file using the SOAFORWARD import job, the SOAFORWARD job will only register a new Purchase order response (SOA) item if there are changes to the item that require a new Purchase order response (SOA) item to be registered. This could be a change to the confirmed/requested date, quantity or change in price. If there are no changes to these fields, there will not be created a new Purchase order response (SOA) item.

Possible fields to be loaded into RamBase are listed in the Field-column in the following table. The other columns in this table provide additional information about each field.
