Set New Delivery Date/Re-Promise (POs)

PURCHASING > Purchase Orders > Modify a processed PO > Set new delivery date/re-promise
(also available in other areas of the system)

This utility is used to update the delivery date for items on processed Purchase Orders and simultaneously increment the number of “re-promises”, which is used to track Supplier Performance, among other things.

This utility does not increment the revision number for Change Orders.

To change the delivery date without updating the number of “re-promises” and/or to update the revision number, process a Change Order instead.

TIP: Use the Delivery Expediting Notices to remind suppliers and confirm the delivery date for overdue orders.
