Within Floriday, you can place standing orders on a contract. This standing order order is definite, and the corresponding EKT will be sent immediately.
Using a standing order schedule, you can create a schedule of call-off standing orders where the orders are saved as drafts. These draft standing orders can be finalized at a later time, and only then will the EKT for the standing order be sent. In this way, you as a buyer does not receive EKTs immediately for standing orders in the further future.
On this page, we explain the following components:
Creating a standing order schedule
Setting up a standing order schedule is done by creating a standing order. To do this, click on Standing orders in the menu and select the desired contract.
Then, choose Schedule instead of Standing order.
Next, you select the call-off quantity (pieces, packages, layers or load carriers), the period for this standing order schedule (which may therefore differ from the entire duration of the contract), and the frequency with which the standing orders are placed:
In the example above, the call-off schedule applies only to the remaining days of August on Mondays and Thursdays.
Then you fill in which quantities will be sent per day:
Optionally, you can add a Reference to the lines.
In the top right, you can see how many standing orders this results in for specific day in the selected period:
Once you have entered all the details, you can save the standing orders as drafts at the bottom. This does not make them final yet. The standing orders can still be edited at this stage, and no EKT is sent to you as the buyer yet. They only become final after the draft standing orders have been completed and approved by the grower.
Edit draft standing orders
After creating a standing order schedule, you can view the draft standing orders under Overview > Draft. Click on the standing order you want to edit. You can now make edits and save the standing order again as a draft or Save and finalize.
Finalizing draft standing orders
To finalize a draft standing order, click the Save and finalize button after clicking on the standing order.
It is even easier to do this via the dots at the end or via the multi-select; check multiple standing orders and complete them via the bar at the bottom; Finalize.
Visibility for growers
Only when a standing order has been finalized by you as the buyer a grower will see this reflected in their overview of standing orders. Depending on the agreements, a grower will first have to approve this standing order, or it will be approved automatically. After that, it appears under Approved on the grower's end.
The grower can find draft standing orders from you as the buyer under the Schedule heading. However, he will need to check the box for Draft standing orders to be able to view the specific drafts.
