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, a buyer does not receive EKTs 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 thestanding 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 the buyer yet. The draft standing orders only become final after they have been fulfilled.
Edit draft standing orders
After creating a standing order schedule, you can view the draft standing orders under Overview > Draft.
To edit the draft standing orders, you can adjust the quantities and save them as draft again. When you click on the line with the buyer, the entire standing order opens, and you can also make edits within it and save the standing order as a draft again.
Finalizing draft standing orders
To finalize a draft standing order, click the Save and finalize button at the top.
Once you have opened the standing order, you will find the Save and finalize button at the bottom:
Linking batches to a standing order
Do you work with batches? Then you can create standing orders as drafts via the Schedule, after which you only link a batch to ta standing order later.
You do this by using the Add batches button:
Next, a screen opens where you can view, select, and confirm the available batches:
When a batch is linked to a line, this is visible behind the quantity:
Visibility for buyers
Only when a standing order has been processed (saved and finalized) will a buyer see this reflected in their overview of confirmed standing orders.
The buyer can find draft standing orders from you as a grower under the heading Planning. However, they will need to check the box for Draft standing orders to be able to view the specific drafts.
