Transaction Date

On the Order Shipping form, enter the date and time when you update, or accept the default of the current date and time. This information replaces the Ship Date field of the line/release

On the End of Period Costing form, today's date displays by default, but you can change it to the date you want assigned to transactions as a result of running the End of Period Costing activity.

EXAMPLE: If you enter a Post Through date of 10/31/02 and a Transaction Date of 11/01/02, all transactions dated 10/31/02 or earlier will be included in End of Period Costing processing, but variances will be posted with a date of 11/01/02.

On the Purchase Order Receiving form, enter the date for which the transaction is to be recorded or accept the default of today's date.
