I know the system has a built in Earliest Apply Date.

But is there a way to prevent future dates, without having to make a BPM for every condition where a user manually enters a date?

I found a couple of AP Invoices records with bad dates in them:

The first two look like real dates. But upon inspecting what the apply date date was, it looks like the `20` of `2018` was used for the year, and ended up with a year of `2020`.

The last two are obvious fat fingers. Or possibly from the suppliers to our division that makes time machines…

This is only for AP, but there’s a setting in Company Config that will either stop or warn a user when the invoice or apply dates are in the future. I’m not aware of a similar setting for other modules.
