Error message: Transaction date is after current period

Problem:

Transaction, Reimbursement or Invoice date is after current period. The transaction date (or invoice date / submission date for reimbursements) is after the selected accounting period.

The accounting period cannot be for a date on which the transaction hasn’t happened yet.

  • for card transactions, we use the transaction date as the invoice date

  • for invoices, we use the "invoice date" to match the statement above

  • for reimbursements, the “submission date” is used as invoice date and validated against

Solution:

In order to solve this problem, make sure that no selected item is a month after the selected period.

I.e. if the period 2023-04 has been selected for export, you are not allowed to select items dated after April 2023 (not in May, June, July… 2023 or 2024, 2025…)

→ Select items only from the previous period AND / OR select a correct accounting period

Example:

In this specific case, the transaction is dated in May 2023. This means you can select any accounting period from 2023-05 or after, but no period before.

If you selected a batch of transactions (for example 100 transactions) it makes sense to use the filter function to only list transactions from the correct period and not mixing different periods up.
