RE: IFM and Audit Stamp Dates

["Lenore Emhoff" <Lenore.Emhoff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for your reply, Bob.  

We converted to IFM June 2002, and to COM December 2002.  97% of this problem 
is COM invoice transactions.  I did more research...
  
Out of the 62,000 transactions that have the Entry Date greater than the Last 
Change Date, 52,494 have the Entry Date equal to the Effective Date which, at 
first, seems to support your theory.  But then, out of those 52,494 records, 
52,445 have the Last Change Date within the date range of 06/01/2002 through 
08/31/2002.  

There are anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 records per accounting period, up to and 
including January 2004 with these June-Aug 2002 dates in the Last Change Date.  
I submitted this to the hotline for perusal.

Lenore, This is a wild guess. But, I believe that the Entry Date audit stamp
is tied to the transaction's effective date. If a transaction has an
effective date that is earlier than the processing date the situation you
describe can happen. In COM, the invoice date is the effective date and
back-dating invoices might be the culprit.

IFM and Audit Stamp Dates Question...
Does anyone else have audit stamps in the YAARREP file where the ARF0NB
Transaction Status Audit Stamp or the ARDCNB Last Change Audit Stamp is
prior to the ARC4NB Entry Date Audit Stamp?

I have 65,413 out of 3,531,753 transactions that have this illogical
situation, of which 61,082 are COM generated invoices.  I have a hotline
inquiry opened, but I just wonder if it is only happening in our shop or if
others have this situation too.  Thanks in advance for any help.
