Hi,

I am trying to create a new invoice in NAV 2016 but getting error "date is not valid".

Steps to replicate the issue:

1) Click on Sales Invoice (left hand side menu bar).

2) Click on new button (top left )

Get a popup of error: "date is not valid"

    Try debug this issue, it will stop on the particular code, check what date it is trying to validate.

    Go to Sales & Receivables Setup and you will find a field called "Default Posting Date" (under the General FastTab). If you do not see it, click on 'Show More' for the General FastTab.

    You have two choices for that field. If it is set to Work Date, change it to No Date (or if it is set to No Date, toggle to Work Date).

    Tab out of that field, close the Setup window, and try creating a new Sales Invoice. This may solve the issue.

    That said, this appears to be a bug that is either caused by a customization, or a bug in your build / Cumulative Update (CU) / localization of NAV. I'd look at the list of released CUs for NAV 2016 (support.microsoft.com/.../released-cumulative-updates-for-microsoft-dynamics-nav-2016) and see if CUs newer than the one you're on have identified and fixed the issue you're having.

    I hope this helps. If my response has answered your question, please verify by clicking Yes next to "Did this answer your question?"

    Please check the Payment Terms, have you defined 0D any where.

    Assuming the error is generating when selecting the customer.
