How Do I Set Due Date For An Order?

Last updated: October 9, 2026

A due date tells your team when an order has to be finished, so they can prioritize. In Tonomo you set it in the order's Order Details, with a time if you need one, and it appears just below the order's date. On the Orders (Beta) page you can show a Due Date column to set due dates in the list, and filter or sort by due date to see what's coming up.

At a glance

  • Set it in Order Details (Due Date, plus an optional Due Time), or in the Due Date column on Orders (Beta).

  • The Due Date column is hidden at first. Switch it on in Settings.

  • It shows below the order date.

  • To see what's due: Filter orders by Due Date between two dates, or add the Due Date filter.

  • Order due dates are separate from job due dates in Jobs Management.


How do I set a due date on an order?

  1. On Orders Management > Orders (Beta), click the order's Order ID to open Order Details.

  2. Find Due Date and pick the date. Add a Due Time if it's due at a particular time.

The due date shows straight away, below the order date.

Can I set it from the list?

Yes. Turn on the Due Date column in Settings, then set the date right in the order's row. See How Do I Choose Which Columns Show in Order Management?


How do I see which orders are due?

On Orders (Beta):

  • By date range: set Filter orders by to Due Date, choose the dates (for example this week), and sort Old to New to see the most urgent first.

  • As a filter: add the Due Date filter alongside others, for example Team or Service.
