Document Date Field, Sales Header Table

Specifies the date on which you create the sales document.

Note that the program uses this date when calculating the amount that the customer owes according to the information in the Payment Terms window. This date is also used to calculate finance charges according to the grace period and other information in the Finance Charge Terms window. You must therefore ensure that the date in this field corresponds to the date on the sales invoice sent to the customer so that the program will calculate the amount that the customer owes as well as any finance charges correctly.

The program will suggest the work date, but you can change this date as necessary.
