Definition

The reference entry marks the line of a date combination to which the relative entries in other lines should refer.

Examples

You have a combined booking unit "AB" for a combination of free publication "A" and daily newspaper "B".
If you wish to offer the date combination "THSA" (Thursdays in free publication A and Saturdays in daily newspaper B), you must specify that you mean Thursday and Saturday in the same week.

This can be done by making the following entry:

BU_highr Date BU_lower No VA WP MP W M Date BU_ANt R
-------------------------------------------------------
AB THSA A TH X
AB THSA B SA X

The first entry is marked as the "reference entry", so that it is clear that the second entry with the "in the same week" indicator refers to when the free publication should be published.
