Currently, for the purposes of financial reporting currently it is possible to go to Customer/Vendor Ledger Entries, press Edit List and change the Due Date per entry. This is required by the business and works very good, because this change does not require the Accountant to post a credit memo just because if there was an incorrect payment term set.

However, from the point of data integrity, the auditors compare customer/vendor ledger entries with lists of posted documents. As a result different due dates appear - one from posted document, the other from ledger entry. Based on due dates the companies calculate interest and fines.

It would be nice to add Due Date field under the function Update Document that is available from Posted Sales/Purchase Invoice/Credit Memo. As a result the function could update the Ledger Entries as well and the data integrity would not be compromised.

We build some custom code that mimics what happens in Xero. Update on invoice or customer ledger entry and choose whether to do expected date or actually update the due date. Happy to share...
