Modify fields in QuoteHed when new quote created

I’ve spent several hours searching both here and Google to find an answer to this without much success. I’m operating in a multi-tenant hosted environment so the easy approach of a BPM isn’t available because I need to execute some code to calculate the value i need to write into the need by date field.

I need to set the need by date in QuoteHed based on the current date when a new quote is created. I’ve tried using an epidataview notification but the only one that fires when the user creates a new quote is “Initialize” and it fires multiple times. Similarly, I’ve had no luck with field change events.

I’ve been able to capture the quote afteradaptermethod for GetNewQuoteHed, but I can’t put the new value into the view because it doesn’t appear to be available yet. So, I’m looking for any insights on how to do this. Are the fields of the new quote available somewhere in the afteradapter method?
