PO Due date

Mar 21, 2005 2 Replies

It seems that on a purchase order, the due date always defaults to 30days later. Anyway to change this? I know I can change the date on the form but was hoping to change the default date. I didn't see anything in "Preferences" but I am getting old and maybe missed it !

Edit, Preferences, Purchases & Vendors, Company Preferences, "Bills are due __ days after receipt". This applies to both PO's and bills. This will be overridden by vendor's terms.

To set a uniform period of credit for all Vendors and Customers go to Preferences > Purchases & Vendors > Company Preferences > and in the 'Entering Bills' section put the relevant number of days. However if different days of credit are applicable for different persons then go to Vendor List > select the vendor > edit it > Additional Info >

adjust the terms in the 'Terms' box. This will overwrite the number of days selected through 'Preferences' for that particular Vendor.
