The Due Date Calculation page (Document Processing → Due Date Calculation) controls how DocBits computes invoice due dates, discount (Skonto) due dates and payment terms from the payment-term codes found on invoices.

Show Calculated Fields

Enable Show Calculated Fields to make the auto-calculated invoice fields — due date, discount due date, payment terms and AP assignment code — appear in Field Settings and as variables in Quick Search and email templates. Custom document types are never affected.
