Prepare the purchasing decision
Synthetic B-E allows twenty units and expires at 17:00 on 20 October. C-E1 for eight and C-E2 for two were released before expiry; their receipts are pending. Under this local rule, expiry stops new call-offs and closes unused ten-unit authority but leaves those two released call-offs active. It is not a cancellation of supply.
| Record | Quantity | State at expiry | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| C-E1 | 8 | Released; receipt pending | Retain active call-off |
| C-E2 | 2 | Released; receipt pending | Retain active call-off |
| Unused B-E | 10 | 20 − 8 − 2 | Close new-release authority |
Complete the recorded outcome
- Read blanket expiry and the pre-expiry released call-off list.
- Close unused authority and prevent new release.
- Continue real receipt and document tracking for released call-offs.
If actual terms also end existing supply, an explicit order treatment is needed; do not infer it from this authority-only expiry.
How many released units remain under active call-offs?
Show the worked answer
Ten: 8 + 2. The other ten are unused expired authority, not ten cancelled or received goods.
Keep blanket state separate from call-off state and receipt completion.
