Note: The application determines if a part is from a Ghost Order based on the expected arrival date sent on the ASN. When a part is not received within a predetermined number of days after the expected date of arrival, the part is flagged as Ghost Order (Y for Yes). The default number of days is 30. When the part has been received, the field is blank (for No). If the 'Exp Arriv Date' field is blank, the 'Ghost Order' field is blank.
