- The Vendor Commit will reflect the most current date propose or agreed upon by the supplier.
- That could be either the Due Date or Ship Date -whichever one you are collaborate on with the buyer company.

Understanding the View
When you are on the Tasks view, you can look at all orders that need to be highlighted due to a radar status under the Radar tab.
You can click through each PO line (in the middle column) which will change the PO details and actions that are displayed in the column on the right.
