Standard Due Period

Enter the number of days to add to an estimate or order date to identify a due date. The system sets the due date to the order date (taken from the header record) plus the value you enter into this field. For example, to have an estimate line item or customer order line item due 30 days after the order date, enter 30 in this field. If the order date is September 15, the due date on the order or estimate line is automatically set to October 15.

The Standard Due Period has three levels of defaults. You enter a standard due period on the Order Entry Parameters form to use as the system-level default; then you can override the period for a specific item on the Items or Multi-Site Items form; then you can override that period for a specific customer/item combination on the Customer Contracts form.
