This field in the Suggested Order Report window is the expected arrival date for the merchandise on this PO. The system uses the Date Created field and the Lead time field in Vendor File Maintenance to calculate the Due Date field. For example, The Date Created field is 5/15/01. The Lead Time field in Vendor File Maintenance is 7 days. The system calculates the Date Due as 5/22/01.
The Date Created field is the default for the Date Due.
If you are creating a future order (the Order Type field is F), enter the date you expect to receive the items. For future orders, the system uses the Date Due field and the # of Days Before Future PO Quantity Becomes Current field in Options Configuration to determine when to include the item's on-order quantity in suggested order calculations for other POs.
