If no specification is made, the standard posting is by interest on arrears upper limit (for standard bank interest on arrears) or by interest on arrears lower limit of the next run. The interest on arrears upper limit cannot generally be used, since otherwise the interest postings would be treated as backdated value dates during the next run if the session was not immediately imported the day it was created.
