Entering Dates
There are two types of Point of Sale dates: fixed dates and dynamic dates.
Fixed dates are fixed in time. For example, if you enter 05/20/06 or a date range of 01/01/2006 12/31/2006, then this will be the recorded date, no matter how much time has passed. Document dates are fixed dates; but most allow you to change the date while creating it (subject to security rights).
Dynamic dates allow you to define a single date or date range relative to the current Point of Sale date, such as Today or Month-to-Date. As the Point of Sale date changes, so does the dynamic dates. Dynamic dates are typically used to define date ranges for filtering lists and for reporting purposes.
Note: A security right is available to block your employees from changing the date on a receipt.

Select the date field and do one or a combination of the following:
