Accolent ERP allows entry of Payment Receipts which, typically, will be dated as of the date created; however, it is possible to back-date Payment Receipts, if desired. This might be needed, for example, if due to vacations or absences, there was a backlog of payment receipts that hadn’t been recorded when received. Payment receipts should not be backdated to a date prior to the dates of the invoices the payment receipts are related to.
