Request For Order

A Request For Order (RFO) is raised when you know the item(s) that you wish to purchase and its expected cost.

Once you have raised an RFO, you pass the request to your (or your client's) purchasing department to make the purchase. Once you receive the goods you can update the item costs as appropriate. This will provide you with accurate and up to date financial progress data that is distinct from other projects and purchases.

There is no limit to the number of RFOs that can be raised against a project.
