When I run the Open Purchase Orders by Item report, I see a large amount of POs with due dates BEFORE the date the PO was created, some of which are YEARS prior. When I look at the target POs, these assigned Due Dates are nowhere to be seen. I do not suspect the Purchaser is entering these dates incorrectly. Instead, these appear to be generated by the system.
I've looked over all the affected POs and they are from various Vendors and Items, along with various differences in the date difference.
How can I find this gremlin in the system?

Based on the description of the problem with the purchase order dates, it seems possible that there may be data integrity issues within your system. I'm here to help you resolve this.
