Hi @jenna9817,

Thanks for posting and welcome to the Community Forum.

I understand the need to create a payment for the invoice. If you are going to create a payment for the invoice, the application will allow you if the date of the payment is past the lock date period. However, if you need to create a payment inside the lock period date, you will need to lift the lock period before recording that payment.

I recommend reading through this article, Lock a Period. This will provide further information about how lock periods work.

Let us know if you require any further assistance with this.

Thanks,
