Change Accounts Payable Date is an option that needs to be checked every day. The Accounts Payable date does not increment along with the system date. The Accounts Payable date will need to be set every day for the day's work and changed to the appropriate date should invoices being entered have a different date than today's date. 

The batching of invoices by invoice, or entry, date is very important.  Invoices from the last few days of one accounting period may not be entered in the same batch as invoices from the first few days of the next accounting period.  The invoices will be updated to the General Ledger in different accounting periods.
