Clearer Delivery Dates: No More Guessing on Lead Times

Vague lead times like "4 weeks" often lead to missed expectations and schedule confusion. Parts Portal now uses exact calendar dates and visual delivery indicators to keep buyers and shops in complete alignment.

What’s New

For Customers (Precise Delivery Requests)

• RFQ Date Picker & Flexibility: Set exact Start and End delivery dates when submitting an RFQ, or flag your timeline as "Flexible" if you have wiggle room.
  
  
  
  
  
• Visual Delivery Guidance: On incoming quotes, clear green or red indicators show instantly whether a vendor's estimated delivery hits your requested window—no math or guessing required.

For Vendors (Dynamic Quoting & Overrides)

• Instant Overrides & Auto-Pricing: Parts Portal auto-calculates your estimated delivery timeframe, but sometimes you need to make an exception for customers. When you need to expedite or push out a schedule, adjust delivery weeks directly on the quote and the system automatically recalculates pricing and lead-time multipliers in real time.

Why This Matters

This update eliminates unnecessary back-and-forth. Customers get total transparency on when parts will hit the dock, and shops save time on communication.
