Commitments ledger

Updated View as Markdown

The commitments ledger lists every commitment you made to a buying group: the product, the units you promised, the payout per unit, the deadline and how many units you have bought so far. It is on Pro and Concierge.

Where commitments come from

  • Synced from your groups: BFMR reservations and the commitments at BuyingGroup.com, Deal & Runner, USA Buying Group and all other supported groups are added for you.
  • By hand: on the Commitments page, add the product, the quantity (at least 1), and optionally the payout and the deadline. You can delete only the commitments you added by hand.

How progress is counted

BuyingGroupPro counts the units bought from your orders, live, so the ledger is always current. Each commitment shows one of these states:

  • Open: units still to buy.
  • Fulfilled: you bought all the units, or more.
  • Closed: closed at the group.
  • Expired: the deadline passed.
  • Stale: no deadline, and older than 30 days.

Expired and stale commitments are left out of the remaining-payout total.

Deadline alert

When commitments pass their deadline with units still unbought, you get one alert that lists them all, at most once a week.
