Documentation
Definition
Date on which the document is posted in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA).
Use
The system uses the posting date to derive, for example, the fiscal year and posting period when transferring summary records to the General Ledger Accounting. This information is required for period-based updates of the G/L account or cost element specified in the document.
The system also refers to the posting date when considering the key date and period for open items.
Note
The posting date does not have to be the same as the entry date (date on which the entry was made in system) or document date (date on which the original document was created).

Use
Transfer of totals records:
If you do not want to transfer all totals records of a reconciliation key, you can limit a partial amount by way of the company code or by way of the posting date.
In field Transfer To Posting Date you can specify the posting date up to which totals records should be transferred.
Totals records that are not transferred can be transferred at a later date. The system ensures that already transferred totals records are not transferred again.
Transfer of correction records:
Enter either the current date or no date at all. The posting date cannot be used as a selection criterion.
