Description of Enhancement
Hi,
Since October 27th update, the following fields are available in the Acquisitions module (Order item / General tab).
- Vendor Response
- Require attention
- Set By
- Expected Fulfillment Date
They are currently not in the Acquisitions universe.
Issues Enhancement Will Resolve
It's important to have them in the Acquisitions universe as the expected date is going to become the date we are actually expecting the order instead of guessing it using the order date.
A list of our orders is pulled out every day from Analytics to our Intranet for our branches. Currently, they are asking questions about orders when it's been a few weeks, or months since the order was sent to the vendor. Not knowing if the vendor replied to our reminder or if an order is delayed etc
As we are going to add the new expected fulfillment date automatically for our new orders (and updated manually the older ones when we get a response from the vendors), this date as well as the fields that are related (Vendor response / Require attention / Set by) are going to be really important for the Acquisitions as well as the libraries staff.
