The operator details form is quite simple. The external hire function allows an operator to raise a purchase order for an external hire. In order to maintain control over what is authorised an individual maximum purchase amount (in whole currency units) can be stored against each used ID. Users who have no entry in this table are not allowed to raise a purchase order and as such are prevented from using the external hire routine.
