| Record Manual/Print Quick Checks did not create entries to the Accounts Payable account even though the payment date and invoice accounting date are in different periods |
Cause | Both dates are future dates and are beyond the six (6) future periods allowed to post in General Ledger. This affects the Accrual accounting method only. |
Resolution | [BCB:5:Third-party support:ECB]
Record a General Ledger journal entry for the missing transactions to the Accounts Payable account. - Generally this will be a credit using the Invoice accounting date and a debit using the check or payment date as the accounting date on the Accrual accounting method only. Consult with your accountant to verify the entries that should be made.
- Refer to How do I record a General Ledger journal entry?
- If your Accounts Payable account is a control account, refer to How do I record an entry to a control account in General Ledger?
- To avoid this issue, when entering invoices and checks with future period dates, enter the invoice through the task enter invoices and then pay through the record the payment and select the existing invoice. This will ensure that all entries are created.
