Quote to Sales Order: Need By no longer required?

I swear the Quote Order wizard used to require Need By Date. As of today, it doesn’t. My boss distinctly remembers it requiring Need By as well.

Could this be a company or site setting? A consultant might have changed something in our test environment without telling us. It also stopped setting the default salesperson on the order, which I have a vague memory of being related to a site setting…

I found the previously checked checkbox that controls copying the salesperson to the order unchecked. Still wondering how to restore the functionality of Quote Order Wizard…
