Common use of Acceptance of Purchase Order Clause in Contracts

Acceptance of Purchase Order. The Suppliers, with exception of the e-VMI (= electronic Vendor Managed Inventory) Suppliers, have the obligation to acknowledge receipt of the Purchase Order within a period of 10 calendar days from the date of the receipt of the Purchase Order and they have to accept the Purchase Order by fax, e-mail or any other electronic communication tool. The Purchaser may cancel any Purchase Order not accepted within this period, without such cancellation giving any right to claim compensation. Any other terms referred to in the Purchase Order shall take precedence over these general purchase terms in the event of a conflict. No terms or conditions of the Supplier which appear on any order confirmation, invoice, delivery note or other documentation relating to the Deliverables shall form part of the Contract and the Supplier waives any rights that it might otherwise have to rely on such terms and conditions.
