Problem
Why, when posting an invoice, does the system prompts me to choose a Time period I want the invoice to go into, even though I have the system set to Always Current Time ledger period? The options given are the most current Time ledger period or a period in reconciliation.
Resolution
There are three options, when posting invoices, that control what period the invoice will go into and each of these have different effects when the invoice is posted. These are described as below:
Always current time ledger period
The invoice will go into the most current Time ledger period except when there is a Time ledger period marked as ‘in reconciliation’. The reason for this is that the current period could be interpreted as the one ‘in reconciliation’. For example, if an invoice is posted that had been forgotten and needs to go to the period in reconciliation.
On the basis of the invoice date
The invoice will go into the period relating to the invoice date. If there is not a period that covers that date you will have the option to a) create new periods b) use the most current period c) abandon the posting
Same as Fees period
This will take the Fees period and pick the period in the Time ledger that has the identically same period reference i.e. 2004/08. If there is no such period then you will have the option to a) create new periods b) use the most current period c) abandon the posting
