Hi Experts,

I made a posting on 30th Sept. However, after posting the posting date is being reflected as 1st Oct.

Any updates would be appreciated.

Sorry, the Baselining date (=Doc date) is 30th July. 2 months ahead of the posting.Any response would be highly helpful.

Document date will be your invoice date and posting date the system automatically picks the date i.e current date. Thanks.

Hi Irene,

Ideally yes.
But the system is picking N+1 as the posting date as soon as I submit it i.e. the posting date should be 30th Sept but the system is picking 1st Oct as the posting date.

P.S. : Both the periods are open.
