### FAQs

#### How do the different delivery dates, estimated dates and estimated arrival dates combine on a Sales Order?

The estimated delivery date within the Delivery Management section is an estimate at Sales Order level. It is based on the lead time of the items, and will automatically update as linked Purchase Orders are managed.

It will always show the date that is furthest away.
