Help CenterUnderstand purchases, payments, and value date
Distinguish sale date, payment date, and value date to review accounting accurately.
In Accounting, not all dates mean the same thing. Sale date indicates when the operation was registered, payment date when it was collected, and value date when it should count for accounting purposes.
This difference matters when filtering purchases, reviewing cash, preparing invoices, or reconciling revenue.
If a purchase does not appear where expected, first check which date you are using as the criterion.
Recommended steps
- Open Accounting.
- Decide whether you need to review purchases, invoices, remittances, cash desk, or refunds.
- Apply the required period and filters before interpreting amounts.
- Review dates, statuses, and payment methods before correcting or exporting information.
Before you start
Make sure you are in Accounting and that you have permission to perform this action in the correct center.
If you are changing information that affects clients, bookings, payments, or notifications, review the current state first to avoid incomplete changes.
What happens next
After saving or applying the action, return to the related list, profile, or session and check that the change appears as expected.
If the result is not what you expected, review filters, selected date, active center, and item status before repeating the action.
