May 2021 - Default Shipping Details, Errors, and Warning Messages

Your project's shipping details now have a new default in-hands date! There are also errors and warning messages anytime your purchase order's in-hands/shipment dates conflict with the sales order or conflict with each other.

Default in-hands date

If your team has chosen to show in-hands dates on their purchase orders, all new purchase orders will default to having the same in-hands dates as the client's sales order.

Default shipment date

If your team has chosen to show shipping dates on their purchase orders, all new purchase orders will default to having a shipment date that matches the present day. For example, if you create a PO on May 5th, the POs shipment date will default to May 5th.

Error messages
