Update PO due date from New PO Suggestion - Material List tab

Is it possible to update PO due date from New PO Suggestion - Material List tab?

Under the New PO Suggestion screen, we normally review our suggestions from the Material List tab then tick the "Buy" column and generate PO from there.  

However, the "Due date" fields on this screen is greyed out (see below).

 

So to update the Due date before the PO is created, we have to go into the Suggestion - Detail tab and in there the Due Date is field is NOT greyed out (see below).

 

 

Is it possible to update PO due date from New PO Suggestion - Material List tab?

Thanks.

Dear Carolina, 

Using Field Help / Technical Details you can learn more about how these fields are different.  They have the same field description, and the one in the List view erroneously tells the user that the dates can be changed.  But in Technical Details you can see that the one in the Detail page is a DB field of SugPoDtl.DueDate, and the one in the List view is a calculated field calcDueDate with no DB field in the binding.  Here are my ideas for editing or importing these in List view.

  1. Open the grid collection of the List view, and see if there is the SugPoDtl.DueDate field available to be un-hidden.  I expect it would be there, since there are other fields from that table in the grid.  If it’s not there, you could add it with a classic UI customization (see “add field to list view.”)
  2. Create your own list view using the Sheet Wizard, either through an embedded updatable dashboard, or other ToolBox tools, for updating the fields you need.
  3. Use a standalone updatable dashboard on the table SugPoDtl.

If you need help with any of these, continue to post here in the forum and we’ll lend a hand.
