Write Off Small amounts to follow Transaction Date Validation settings

Hi,

We've had a request from a customer asking if it would be possible in a later version to have the Write Off Small amounts wizard obey Transaction Date validation settings.

IE if a transaction which is to be written off has a date in a closed period (be it this year or previous) and the Transaction Date Validation settings are so enabled to prevent or warn that this is then followed when trying to post these Write offs. This is in order to fend off auditors asking why transactions are appearing with old dates.

Alternatively to give an option to enter a transaction date on the Write Off Small amounts window

Thanks

  • Has this issue been addressed yet? Presently any write offs appear dated the same date as the original transaction and are automatically posted to the earliest NL open accounting period. It is still disconcerting to see a decision taken in October 21 to write off a small balance of a transaction dated December 20 (year closed) and it appear in period 7 (still open, technically, but Sep21 management accounts completed a week ago) dated Dec 20. I took the decision in Oct21 and would much prefer to see the transaction dated Oct21 and appear in month 10.
