Updating dates on Sales Orders

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 44

Hi All,

When a sales order is created from a sales quote, I would like to have the document date updated to "Today's Date"


EG
If i create a sales quote on 12/12/22 and only converted it to a sales order on 12/29/22, i would like the document date to show 12/29/22


How do i go about doing this?

Thanks!

    HI,

    Just type and overwrite document date. It's convinient to type "t" instead of typing the date of today.

    So far as I researched, no standard feature exist for such requirement..

    I hope this helps you.

    Hey thanks for your response,

    Unfortunately the client wants it automatically populate.

    Can't wrap my mind around how that code should be...

    The code to do this is pretty easy. There is an event you can subscribe to that trigges when a quote is made into a sales order. You can simple set the date to today in that event. I am adding some sample code.

    codeunit 55015 QuoteToSalesOrder
    {
    
     [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"Sales-Quote to Order (Yes/No)", 'OnAfterSalesQuoteToOrderRun', '', false, false)]
     local procedure OnAfterSalesQuoteToOrderRun(var SalesHeader2: Record "Sales Header"; var SalesHeader: Record "Sales Header");
     begin
        SalesHeader.Validate("Document Date",Today);
        SalesHeader.Modify(true);
     end;
        
    }
