What’s happening?
The document date on the ledger settlements report is not showing the date that was imported for the general journal entries.
 
Reason:
This occurs when the voucher is the same on all lines of a general journal batch. In this case, the document date is picked from the first line, leading to incorrect display on the ledger settlements form.
 
Resolution:
To prevent this happens again, create journals with different voucher numbers for each line, ensuring that the document dates are different. This should allow the ledger settlement form to display the correct dates as per the journal lines.
