3758609 - How to align the Posting and Payment Dates in the APP Manage Payment Requisitions

In the app Manage Payment Requisitions, users are attempting to process a payment for an item that has already been partially paid. The system automatically defaults the posting and payment date to the current calendar month. Crucially, this date cannot be changed by the user, even if an earlier accounting period is open and the desired posting month.

If the accounting period for this defaulted current calendar month is not open (e.g., it's April, but only March is open in the system), there is an error displayed as: "Period YY is not open for account type K and G/L XXXX" will appear, preventing the transaction.

1. Open the app Manage Payment Requisitions.
2. Select a payment requisition and navigate to its payment strategy.
3. Create or select a payment strategy and choose "Pay".
4. There is an error displayed as: "Period XX is not open for account type K and G/L YYYY".

 This behavior is by design for partially paid requisition items within the app Manage Payment Requisitions.

To successfully post the remaining amount of a partially paid requisition item to a specific month (which is not necessarily the current calendar month) in the app Manage Payment Requisitions, the following steps must be taken:

1. Reverse Previous Payments: First, please reverse all previous partial payments that have been made for the specific requisition item in question.
2. Process Full Payment: Once all previous payments have been reversed, the system no longer treats the item as a subsequent partial payment. You can then process the entire requisition item and complete payment. At this point, the system will offer the flexibility to select the desired posting and payment date. You can then choose your intended posting month (e.g., March, if it's open), and the transaction will be processed accordingly.

Note: Ensure that the specific accounting period you intend to post to is indeed open in your system.
