How can I use the accounting date source?

The value in the lockbox Accounting Date Source field determines the accounting date to apply to the receipts in the lockbox.

The accounting date source values for lockbox processing are:

• Constant Date: Use the accounting date that you enter in the lockbox transmission.

  If you don't enter an accounting date, the lockbox process doesn't validate your data.

• Deposit Date: Use the deposit date that you enter in the lockbox transmission. This is the date that your remittance bank deposits your receipts.

  If you don't enter a deposit date, the lockbox process displays an error and prompts for a deposit date to submit the lockbox.

• Import Date: Use the date you import receipts.
