Under the purchasing tab there should be a column with a production date and wording if there is a hard date. During the proposal / Order phase, there would be a hard date check box. This can originate when setting the proposal expiration date and the in hands date. This date and hard date would transfer over to the Needs Purchasing tab in addition to the jobs tab. By doing this, it would create visibility for the person purchasing to know the timing of the order and provide insight on timing of when to order from a wholesaler. Currently in the purchasing tab there is only a column of ship/ pickup date which pulls from an online store.
