Buyers can select the date when they would like to receive each ordered part. The preferred due date option can be set to be required, optional or completely hidden from the user during checkout. This setting is found at
Home › B3_Organization › Organizations › <your organization> > General Settings & Features
The date will be reflected in the order detail view so that the order coordinator can use it to prioritize the urgency of each part, independent of when the order was placed. This date can be used as a reference by production planners to prioritize urgent parts while creating the final job schedule. The preferred due date is used to automatically assign an internal production target date to parts.
