Document Date Field, Gen. Journal Line Table
Shows the date on the document that provides the basis for the entry on the journal line.
Note that the program uses this date when calculating the amount that a customer owes or the amount due to a vendor according to the information in the Payment Terms window. This date is also used to calculate finance charges according to the grace period and other information in the Finance Charge Terms window. You must therefore ensure that the date in this field corresponds to the date on the sales invoice sent to the customer or the date on the purchase invoice received from the vendor so that the program will calculate the amount due and any finance charges correctly.
The program will suggest the Posting Date, but you can change this date as necessary.
