Posting Date
The posting date is used to record the date the adjustment transaction is actually posted to General Ledger.
Accounts Payable also uses this date to select the fiscal year and period to which the transaction is posted. (You cannot edit the year or period.)
The default posting date that appears depend on your choice for the Default Posting Date option on the A/P Options form, but you can change it.
Note: If you consolidate G/L transactions, the posting date for consolidated entries is the last date of the fiscal period.
