Sales leadtime for intercompany orders

in my installation I have 2 companies (A and B).

Company A is a pure sales company, that purchases from B and sells. It owns stock. The vast majority of the sales orders become intercompany orders to company B

Company B is mostly a production company that sells to company A . Though it sells also to local customers.

Each company has the sales leadtime at 10 meaning that a order entered today automatically proposes as requested shipment date today+10 days.

What happens is that the intercompany orders in company B at the header level maintain the requested shipment date and the requested receive date as the original sales order of company A, though if you look at the order lines details the requested shipment date has also the sales leadtime days of company B.

If I put company A sales leadtime to 0, then the requested shipment date is the same day of the order creation date, that is not right

If I put company B sales leadtime to 0, then the intercompany orders are ok, but the sales orders created directly in company B have the requested shipment date equal to the order creation date.

Questions.

is it a correct behavior that the intercompany order header requested date is different from the order lines?

Is there a standard way to tell AX not to apply the sales leadtime to intercompany orders?

Thanks in advance for your support
