Accpac 5.6 Deposit Date issue 1

[WalterHeisenberg]

Hello,

We are running into an issue where AR Receipts are missing from the bank reconciliation module but they are on the G/L. Naturally, I advanced the reconciliation date and all the items that were missing are magically there.

Now I was under the impression that the deposit date was determined by the AR batch date. When I look at the AR batch date, the user had entered the proper value. In fact, all the dates had been entered correctly. So I am at a loss how the deposit date got set to 1/3/2012 when the batch date, receipt date, and posting date were all 12/31/2011.

Has anyone else come across this? We are running Accpac 5.6 Product Update 2. Thanks in advance for looking at this and your help.

Check again, the deposit date was 1/3/12, it's a common mistake.

Tuba,

Everything on the AR Receipt Entry screen shows 12/30/2011. I was able to recreate this error in our sandbox company this morning by entering a batch to with a batch date of 1/3/2012, adding an entry, and then changing the batch date to 12/30/2011 after I had already saved the record. It appears BKTRANH does not get updated.

I don't see anything indicating this is a known problem but it seems as if this should be quite common.

Correct, changing the batch date does not change the original deposit date, I had 2 complaints about this just last month.

That solves that. I've always instructed users to just change their session date near year-end to avoid the headache but some people just never learn!

Thanks Tuba for confirming this is an expected result. Seems like the deposit date should be displayed on the AR Entry screen but who am I to judge.
