Definition

Posting date for clearing FI documents that is different to the posting date of the FI document.

The posting date for clearing FI documents should only be different to the posting date of the FI document in exceptional cases because otherwise there can be currency differences in the clearing. It may be necessary, for example, if the posting period in FI is closed and cannot be opened again.

If there is no entry for the posting date, the posting data of the FI document is set by default to avoid the currency differences mentioned above.
