Posting period area - External settings
In the Posting Period area, you can define posting periods for goods receipts. Users can only post goods receipts for this period; the posting date must be within the period. Please note that posting periods are not taken into account for automatically posted goods receipts.
The following fields are available for defining posting periods:
Title: Title of the posting period, e.g. period February to November 2016.
Valid from: Start time (date) on which the posting period is to begin.
Valid until: End time (date) on which the posting period is to end.
Earliest posting date: in this field you can define from which day (key date) the goods receipts for this posting period should be taken into account.
