Begin Date

For a New Blanket Order, click in the drop-down menus and select a date for the Blanket Order to begin operation. This must not be a date earlier than today (it can be today's date or a date in the future).

For an Existing Blanket Order, this box contains the original Begin Date. If that date is in the future, you may use the drop-down menus to change it to a different future date. If the Begin Date is already passed, the text box cannot be edited.

End Date and End Date Enforcement

High - Deny All Activities Beyond End Date - If selected, no release activities beyond End Date is allowed.

Medium - Only Allow Change Requests and Order Responses Beyond End Date - If selected, only Change Request and Order Responses are allowed beyond End Date.
