Use

The system uses the date entered here to derive different variables, depending on the subject. For example:

  • The "Balance Sheet Values by Account" program derives stock quantities, values, and accounts from this key date.
  • If you only want materials with a stock quantity greater than zero to be included in the print list, the system orients itself to this key date.
  • The stock quantities included in the check amount invoice refer to this key date.
