Ship Date <> GL Post Date

@nanvdand After you do the month end manual capture, setting the Earliest Apply Date to the first day of the new period for all modules except for GL will keep and COS transactions from going to previous periods closed or not. This also keeps rogue corrections from corrupting published financials and could be the reason the 9/1 capture was all in the new period.

Thanks @gpayne - we definitely need to get better at using Earliest Apply Date.

Thank you everyone for your help. As a few of you suspected, I had the Capture Outdated Transactions box checked in the Capture COS/WIP Activity. Since this is scheduled to run every night (around 2:00am), any shipping transactions that happened on end of month would post to the earliest apply date of the first day of the preceding month. This took a while to sink in my thick skull but I now understand it!
