Adding Delivery date to purchase orders

Morning 

 

I've recently switched to Quickbooks online.  On creating Purchase orders the only way I can see to add a delivery date is to create a custom field and then it is simply a text field rather than an actual date.  Am I missing something or is that all there is currently?  

 

I currently run a report in desktop of outstanding orders by delivery date and so I am assuming this report is no longer available, which seems a glaring omission if it is.

 

thanks

Hi Tom, thanks for posting on the Community. We hope you're getting to grips with your new QuickBooks Online account following your conversion from Desktop. 🙂

 

Currently, there's no option to include a delivery date field on the purchase order. The suggested workaround would be the one which you've already explored, by entering text in a custom field. This does mean that it's not possible to sort by this on the open purchase order reports.
