Releasing QUOTES to Invoice accidently with OLD DATE

Hi All,

 

The following programming is continually creating issues and unnessary work for our team monitoring and fixing invoices if quotes accidently released with older dates.

 

I know this has been raised by others and it should be a easy programming fix. 

 

This should be a simple programming fix. "If 'ENTER SALE' or "NEW SALE" is launched, MYOB AR should automatically use current date from system" , it should not be holding onto old dates for new sales.

 

I wish they could be fixed in updates.

 

Releasing QUOTES to Invoice accidently with OLD DATE - AR is then retaining this old date and applying it to all new independant sales invoices processed until user realises or AR is restarted.

 

If a Quote is converted to an Invoice and the user forgets to update the date to current day, MYOB is retaining the old original quote date when it was created, and then MYOB is started applying that that same old date for all new future sales invoices processed unless the user recognises this and manually corrects the date before saving next new invoice or the users MYOB is closed and restarted.

 

This is causing massive headaches with new invoices processed can then end up being recorded with old dates in previous months.

 

New Sales and old Quotes should be completely independent.

 

If "Enter Sales" is selected, it should automatically set it up with the current date. Not retain the old date from when ever a quote was released. This should be a simple programming fix. "If NEW SALE is launched, automatically use current date from system" that straight forwarder

 

Also when a quote is released with an old date, there should at least be some bigger warning that an previous old date is being used or "Confirmation" required to accept that you relise it is being recorded with prior date.

 

Current Process example:

1. Current Date: 29.6.22 - All new sales and invoices should have this date from "Enter Sales"

2. Old quote is released on the 29.6.22 but quote is dated and converted still with old date 5.5.22.

3. Then user goes back to "Enter Sales" or "New Sale" to process another new sale. The system is retaining this old date from a month ago 5.5.22 and start processing everything with that old date. Throwing invoicing, statements and the whole sequence out of wack.

 

Please solve.
