Suppose you have an item with re-ordering policy=lot for lot.

Now in the requisiton worksheet, the blanket sales order is seen as a demand.

This causes the complete blanket sales order is ordered at one date, but you don't need this stock until a few months later. So you have too early too much stock in the warehouse.

If the blanket sales order is excluded from the requisition worksheet, the purchase order will be created only when there is a sales order created from the blanket sales order.

Sabine and Saskia,
Some years ago I was working on those situations (older verions, perhaps even 2009) and we figured that this type of control was already NAV standard. By clearing the Blanket line fields responsible for the availability calculation (i.e., Shipment Date in Sales, Expected Receice Date in Purchase) those lines were excluded from Replenishment calculations.
Perhaps you could give it a try in the recent versions (I just don't know).

It would be even better functionality if you could indicate on a blanket sales order line if you want it included or not.
