Draft material
From reading web pages: There are a number of variations on the way a DIFOT figure is calculated.

DIFOT = Number of orders delivered in full and on time / total orders shipped

An alternative is:

DIFOT = DIF X DOT

where

DIF = number of orders delivered in full / number of orders delivered

DOT = number of orders delivered on time / number of orders delivered

Neither of these definitions include orders that are already late but have not yet been delivered, either in part or full; in other words, the DIFOT only counts orders that have been delivered, whether in part or in full.

The DIFOT can also be based on:
 * Number of orders
 * Number of order lines
 * Number of units, i.e. the quantity
 * Number of shipments or deliveries

 * Get some decent references! The web ones above are not up to par; they're just examples of DIFOT definitions or usage.
 * Format the above references properly.
 * Format the above formulae better.
 * Give examples for the different bases for calculating the DIFOT, and describe the implications of each.
 * Publish this draft!
