DueDate -Designflaw

lally

Hi

Why MS allowed the duedate in the vendor/customer open transactions form ?

Is it design flaw or is there any specific business reason ?

Can you all share your experience ?

Thanks

Are you referencing the customer and vendor ledger? It is not a direct edit, so it can be prevented. Also, when negotiating with a customer for collections, it may be reasonable to adjust the due date on the documents (even in some cases on wrong terms used). This would alter them from showing as overdue and due on the newly determined date. This does not affect invoicing or posting of the existing transaction, as the invoice data is in tact and the payment data occurs when posting. This would also go with the payment discount values. It is common to alter and renegotiate payment discount percentages and dates.
