Most often vendors remain unaware of the progress in processing of amendment requests made by them till the actual amendments / RSOs reach them by post or they are informed so by their local dealers / partners /agents etc. Knowing the amendments immediately can help in preparing early for an already delayed supply. Early knowledge of such amendments can be beneficial to both the buyer and the seller and contribute significantly to the efficiency of the supply-chain.

S.E.Railway portal now makes it a point-and-click event where you can track the progress of your amendment as and when it is made out in the Stores Department by just providing a part of your "letter reference".  It spares you the trouble of making repeated phone calls and some times an actual trip to the purchase office.
