Documentation
Definition
The posting date contains the date on which the transaction actually took place. This date differs from the date of entry if transactions are not entered directly, but for example, entered in the system retroactively.
This is relevant for statistical purposes, as transactions can be assigned to a quarter, for example, in which they occured, and not to the quarter in which they were entered in the system.
