- Go to Supplier Invoicing work center
- Go to Invoices and Credit Memos view
- Select the relevant Supplier Invoice
- Go to General tab and navigate to Payment information - Payment details sub tab
- Change the Baseline Date for Payment and select Save
- System changes the date back to previous date
Cause
The Baseline Date for Payment is a date from which the terms of payment apply. When you define the payment terms, due date will be based on either Invoice date or Receipt date and the Baseline Date for Payment will be calculated accordingly.
Note - In the Business Configuration work center - Overview - Activity Suppliers - Define Payment Terms for Procurement - For the defined payment term - The due date will be calculated based on either Receipt date or invoice date. You have defined Invoice date.
Resolution
Since the Baseline Date for Payment is calculated based on invoice date, it will revert back to invoice date. If you change the invoice date, the baseline date will also gets changed.
This is an expected behavior.
