Vendor Invoice Journal – Date Selection Options Ignored When Posting Custom Clearance Invoices for Voyages
Description
When creating a Vendor Invoice Journal to post a custom clearance invoice linked to a voyage, the system provides three date-selection options:
- Adjustment Transaction Date
- Purchase Order Date
- Selected Date
However, the system disregards the chosen option and consistently defaults to the date defined in the Landed Cost Parameters setup. This results in inconsistent behavior and prevents users from applying the appropriate date logic per transaction.
Impact
Affects usability and accuracy for organizations that rely on specific date-selection logic during voyage‑related invoicing.
Suggested Improvement
Ensure that the system honors the date option selected on the Vendor Invoice Journal instead of overriding it with the default parameter value. This will align system behavior with user expectations and improve date accuracy for landed cost processes.
