Document Date Field, Purchase Header Table

Specifies the date on which the vendor created the purchase document (the date of the vendor's invoice).

Note that the program uses this date when calculating the amount due to the vendor according to the information in the Payment Terms window. You must therefore ensure that the date in this field corresponds to the date on the purchase invoice received from the vendor so that the program will calculate the amount due to the vendor correctly.

The program will suggest the Posting Date for this field, but you can change this date as necessary.
