Hi,

I am having trouble to understand how to correctly use the field "Shipment Date" on Sales Return Order header and lines.
:/
As far as I understand the NAV Help, I should enter the date when I receive the returned item.
  1. Is it the expected receive date?
  2. Will it be updated accordingly when I post the Sales Return Receipt?
  3. Why is it prefilled when I use the function "Get Posted Document Lines to Reverse" with the value from the original Shipment line? That doesn't make sense to me since it never will be this date (item is usually not returned the same day).

I am really not sure what the field really is used for?
I've seen that it was used to store the shipment date for replacement items - but from the NAV Help this seems wrong.
This kind of information should be on the Sales Order, right?
