Posting Date is not within your range of allowed posting dates.

Posting Date is not within your range of allowed posting dates. 


This error is caused when your Posting Date Range and the Posting Date on the document you are trying to post do not correspond with each other. 



I got this error when trying to post this example Sales Order below. The Posting Date is set to the 19/01/2011 - however my posting date range is set-up for the 01/06/13..01/08/13. This means the only way I can post this Sales Order is to either: 

- Change the Posting Date on the document to be within my range.
- Change my Posting Setup to encompass the 19/01/11




You can change your posting date from these two locations: 

1. Financial Management >> Setup >> General Ledger Setup >> Allow Posting From/To 

When setting the Posting Date Range from this location these dates will be company wide - and effect every user (unless specified differently in point 2). 


2. Administration  >> Application Setup >> Users >> User Setup

In this location you can give different users specific date ranges. For example if you had one user who was only allowed to post documents from last month but another user who works in the finance department who needs to go back further, you could specify these date ranges here. 

Note: If you specify a date range From & To for a user in the User Setup table, this will take precedence over the General Ledger Setup date range.
