Purchase Orders. Due date by line/item rather than whole order.

Ian_8365621

Two part question:

1. Is it possible to specify the due date for each item/line on a purchase order? If I expect part of the order to arrive a different date to the rest of the order.
2. Inventory status report shows "Next Deliv" as the date of the PO, not the due date on the PO. Can this be changed?

Thanks

1) Is it possible to specify the due date for each item/line on a purchase order? If I expect part of the order to arrive a different date to the rest of the order.

It's not a default column available but yes, however you would need to either:

1. use the existing Service Date label (assuming you're not already using this one!) or
2. use one of the "Other ..." labels or
3. add a custom Data Field -

(Note 2 & 3 are just text fields so won't contain the calendar dates or be able to be used in auto-calculating timeframes)

2) Inventory status report shows "Next Deliv" as the date of the PO, not the due date on the PO. Can this be changed?

Yes - The "Next Deliv" column is the available default label "Expected" on your PO template & you can choose to display it both on screen & when printed. Customise your template & tick this label to include accordingly. You can rename it if you prefer however I wouldn't recommend calling it "Due Date" because there is actually already a "Due Date" label relating to payment terms (on invoices)! Note that unfortunately - as it's a field label rather than a column - it's also only able to apply to the whole order, not line-by-line.
