Document date from sales quote to sales order

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi All,

I got a problem with the document date. When I make a sales quote on lets say 1 october for a customer. Three weeks later on 21 october the client accepts the quote so I want to make a sales order from the sales quote. 

The problem now is that the sales order has the same document date as the sales quote; 1 october. When the workers dont pay attention to this the invoice will go to the customer stating that they have to pay within two weeks of the document date. which is 14 october. So we are sending then invoices to the customer that are already too late for payment.

My question is, is it possible to automatically fill in the document date on the sales order and give it the date the sales order is created and not the date the sales quote is created. Would like to hear from you all

Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    Sales Order is created based on Sales Quote information.

    The Document Date can be changed in Sales Quote before you choose “Make Order” action, so the Due Date can be recalculated. However, it's still a manual update.

    You may need a customization to have the automatic behaviour you mentioned.

    Hope this can help.

    Hi Maria,

    Thanks! This helps a lot.

    Now I know that there are now basic possibilities to automize the proces. But customization is needed.

    Thanks a lot :)
