Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-5545:
----------------------------------------
bq. Sales and purchase invoices, for example, would always post to the period
dictated by the Invoice/transaction date, unless of course you had closed your
purchase or sales ledger for prior periods, in which case it should default to
the current open period.
I'm sure it does not add anything to the discussion, but that's also how I
handle my own personall (free lancer) accouting using this software
http://trefle-rouge.com/ for now 14 years. It's not an accounting double
entries software, but the idea is the same, you can't (never) override
transations dates.
> Be able to set the period the GL transaction applies to

> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: accounting
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
>
> Currently, when doing gl transactions (whether automated/scheduled or
> manually), the transaction is always associated with the current (running)
> time period.
> However, it is general practice to have transactions (mainly corrective)
> after a period has been past, e.g. as a result of audits and such.
> Therefore, it should be possible to set a period on each gl transaction that
> overrides the default.
