The due date for all potential suppliers is set when creating the quote on the Details page. However, supplier due dates can also be set on a per-supplier basis, allowing you to have different supplier due dates for different suppliers. This may be needed when certain suppliers (such as build to print suppliers) may need additional time to quote.
You can set a supplier specific due date on the Submit screen of the quote.
Your suppliers will see either the custom due dates set for them for the selected RFQ or see the overall supplier RFQ due date if a custom date was not set.
Quoting RFQ page
You will see a "Multiple Dates" badge on your Quoting list page if different supplier due dates were set for selected suppliers in your RFQ.
Clicking on the Multiple Dates badge will open a side panel with a list of this specific RFQ's suppliers and their due dates.
Overwriting Previous Suppliers Due Dates
Due dates can be changed even after the RFQ has been sent out to suppliers. If you would like to reset the due dates for all suppliers, simply update the field on the Details page of the quote.
A warning will display that this action will “overwrite all previously set custom due dates for suppliers in this RFQ”.
Click Confirm to overwrite the Supplier Due Dates.
