The Anticipated Fulfillment Date field lets agencies track an expected completion date for a request. The date can be added or updated at any time and included in the All Requests Excel export.
Although this feature was designed to support Washington reporting requirements, any agency can use it to track an additional date that is not recorded automatically.
Important Notes
Only Admin users can turn on the Anticipated Fulfillment Date field.
Admins, Department Admins, and Publishers can set the Anticipated Fulfillment Date on a request.
When the setting is disabled, the Anticipated Fulfillment Date field does not appear on requests.
The Anticipated Fulfillment Date is visible only to staff. Requesters cannot view the date or receive notifications when it is added or updated.
