## Use Cases / Context

When salesmen set a delivery date there’s nothing disallowing them to set it before the expected date computed according to the order lead times. That can cause great issues with deliveries schedules, as those lead times are set to ensure that the orders are delivered on time.

## Configuration

If you want to view the delivery date in the top of the sale order form, you should unarchive the `view_order_form_commitment_date_ux` view, which is archived by default.

## Usage

To test the module:

- Go to Sales > Orders and create a new quotation.
- Set whatever customer and order lines.
- Go to the Other info tab, section Delivery and set a Delivery date previous to the expected date.
- A popup will raise warning about setting a delivery before the minimum date possible to promise the delivery.
- Additionally, a warning alert will be shown on the top side of the order advising the salesman to fix that issue.
- If the salesman ignores it, the delivery date will be set to the minimum expected date when the order gets confirmed.

## Known issues / Roadmap

- Make the extended view to add the delivery date to the header of the form configurable with config settings.
