I missed invoicing a shipment last month, which is now financially closed. I tried opening the shipment and changing the ship date to the first day of this month, but when I invoice it, even using an October apply date and showing an October ship date, it still shows in Period 9. Is there any way to get it invoiced in October, short of deleting the shipment completely and reshipping it?
You “should” be able to go to Company Configuration and play around with the below to get it to work. I have never tried it, so I recommend testing it in your non-production environment. I also recommend turning these back to default afterwards.
Earliest Apply Date - change it to ShipDate, then try invoicing. Once finished, change back to day 1 of the current month.
That would allow me to invoice it, but posting the AR invoice failed because it was still trying to post the invoice in Period 9, even though my group apply date was Period 10.
John Kane’s response, above, worked!

Thank you John Kane…I never realized that Company Configuration setting existed!
I enabled the Invoice Dates Setup and changed the Default Apply Date to Group Apply. When I went into my invoice, the invoice apply date defaulted to the ship date from last period. When I changed the apply date on the invoice header, I watched the fiscal period change from 9 to 10!
You made my day!!!

Glad to hear! Little known settings exist at the Company and Site levels, always good to look there if you are trying something.
