Hello

an invoice was created and posted on 12/30/2017 and a payment was issued on 01/04/2018. when we tried posting the payment journals it was not allowed because they are not within range. what does that mean and how can we fix it?

    Can you please send the screenshot of the error. I believe it is because of your posting date range, which is setup on your usersetup or G/LSetup.

    What do you mean by can't insert an image, that is the only I know. Please describe your issue in detail and provide the error message you are getting.

    Hi,

    Please go to general ledger set up and please check the fields allow posting from and allow posting to.

    If allow posting to date is earlier than the payment posting date then it will not allow you. for that you need to extend the date range in allow posting to field.

    Hope it will work.

    Regards

    Hello,

    You can search for 'User Setup' (not Users, but User Setup) and change only your user Posting Dates to go from 12/01/17 to 01/31/18. This date range should cover it. The User Setup posting dates per user override the main General Ledger Setup posting dates.

    However, if your General Ledger Setup 'Allow Posting From' and 'Allow Posting To' dates are still set for last month, you may want to adjust those to January this year (01/01/18 to 01/31/18). This will be for all users.

    thank you we did change the dates as you suggested. however, will these changes affect anything else when we try posting and can we change the dates to how they were prior to what you suggested?

    Hello MayMay,

    You will want to set your General Ledger Setup 'Allow Posting From' and 'Allow Posting To' dates to the current month, and as each month changes you will change these posting dates to the current month you are in to prevent users from posting into prior periods.

    The User Setup posting dates are different. This allows a single user to override the General Ledger Setup. So this is useful for single users who are allowed to post into previous months.  You can give a single user the ability to post for a certain date range (but without giving this to all users).

    You have to check first if you create the new fiscal year of 2018 so you can post in the range.

    Also check the allow posting from date to date in general ledger setup.
