Right now this is by design. We expect user to update Order Date in the card before converting quote to order.
Partner would like this to be changed

We are running into the same issue. At a minimum, it would be nice if there was an option in the Sales and Receivables Setup page that allows the company to chose what date should be used when converting a quote, the conversion date or the original quote date. We have instances where a customer may hold on a large quote for over a month and if the user does not remember to manually change this it causes issues.

Please reconsider this -- if we quoted a customer last month and got the order today, when we convert to an order it should automatically change the order date to the conversion date as Nikolay has suggested. The planned shipment dates on the lines should also be changed to the conversion date and not the quote's original order date as they do now. Keeping the quote date as the order date makes it look like we have had orders sitting open for weeks when that isn't the case. Thank you.

Thank you for this suggestion! Currently this is not on our roadmap. We are tracking this idea and if it gathers more votes and comments we will consider it in the future.
Best regards,
