We have not used blanket purchase orders for any customers as they do not function the way most Purchase Contracts work in the US. They only work for companies doing manual purchasing.
The Blankets should have a start and End date (which can be adjusted)
We need to get messages in Planning for blanket order releases vs creating messages for new purchase orders. The message would create a new Purchase order and reference the Blanket PO (Contract) with the blanket order prices as long as the PO date was within the blanket range and had quantity remaining.
We have used alternate reports for reporting on blankets expiring or running low on remaining quantity.
This would allow the blanket order to work more like purchasing contracts in the United States.

Adding another wrinkle to this. Working with a client who drop ships from the vendor to customers. They would like the ability for the drop ship PO to pull from a blanket PO when the PO is created.

Thank you for this suggestion! Currently this is not on our roadmap. We are tracking this idea and if it gathers more votes and comments we will consider it in the future.
