Syntax:
01. ATH02 R0203 -- At least one of ATH02 or ATH03 is required.
02. ATH03 C0305 -- If ATH03 is present, then ATH05 is required.
03. ATH04 C0405 -- If ATH04 is present, then ATH05 is required.
Semantics:
| 02. |
ATH02 is the resource authorization through date: The date through which the buyer authorizes the seller to commit the resource defined in element ATH01. |
| 03. |
ATH03 is the current cumulative requirements quantity: The cumulative quantity that has been authorized to date from the cumulative start date (ATH05) through the resource authorization through date (ATH02). |
| 05. |
ATH05 is the cumulative start date: The date where the cumulative quantity count starts. This date might be the start date of a contract period, a calendar or fiscal year, or other. |
Comments:
| 01. |
It is imperative that negotiations defining financial commitment have previously occurred and are agreed to by both buyer and seller. |
| 04. |
ATH04 is the maximum cumulative requirements quantity: The maximum cumulative quantity that has been authorized to date from the cumulative start date (ATH05) through the resource authorization through date (ATH02). This is a high water mark. If the forecast decreases, the current cumulative requirements quantity also decreases, but the maximum cumulative requirements quantity does not decrease. |
