Back date Cash Receipts or Accounts Receivable entries in BC?

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by RH 158
I believe most systems allow you to back date AP. Is it possible in BC to also back date AR entries?

I'm getting an error on this and am wondering if y'all found a work around for this.

Thanks!

    I tried this way last night actually.

    It will still have to be the date of the invoice posting. So if we try to post the payment as of 5/1. However the sales order was posted 6/1. When I go to apply, it will still have to use 6/1 as the applied posting date although we want it to show that the payment was received or made 5/1. This is actually strange as well for pre-payments. Unless there is another method for that.

    When you try to post a payment in the cash receipt journal that is applied to an invoice with a date after the payment date, you'll get that error message. To avoid this issue:

    1. Post the payment in the cash receipt journal without applying it to the invoice.
    2. Then, apply the payment to the invoice in the customer ledger entries.

    Here is an example when I try to post:
    My guess is that these sales order were entered after the fact they were done manually and they used a future date and the payment was already received.

    you could take a look at the posting date range on the general ledger setup, and take a look at user setup.
    Both places, if filled with a date range, controls if user could post within a certain period.

    It would be very helpful if you could explain what operation was performed on what page.
     
    Thanks.
