I have already made a suggestion for having a choice of what the 'Actual Ship Date' defaults to. I thought it was an independent field that used the invoice date as a default initially (the 'Expected Ship Date' would be better for us). What I hadn't realized when I made the suggestion was that it was linked to the session date (invoice date), so that when the session date changed, so did the actual ship date. This is fine for retailers and a lot of wholesalers, who invoice at the same time an item is shipped. But as we are a custom manufacturer, we invoice two to three days after an item has been shipped.

Our work around has been to use the expected ship date as the actual ship date. I realize that we are in the minority so this is not likely to change in the immediate future , but it would be nice to have a choice as to what the actual ship date defaults to.

Thanks
