[FIXED] Payments Dates

[dutchnet]

If you manually add a payment to an invoice with a date different then today then the invoice Date Paid is set to todays date and NOT to the date entered manually while adding a payment to the invoice.

 

The transaction date is set to the date entered manually during the Add Payment function.

 

Both dates should be the date entered manually.

 

Problems it causes:

1) you request a Sales Tax Liability Report then the report takes the Date Paid dates which does cause differences if you enter payments in the new month with dates in the previous month.

2) for the customer this seems a error as well cause his balance sheet shows a different date then his bankstatement.

 

This bug has been reported before in earlier versions but has not been solved in 4.21

From a VAT accounting perspective "date-paid" *should* be the date the payment was received, not the date the entry was put into WHMCS

 

Transaction date is correct, Invoice Paid date is not (as per 1st post) - so this is "wrong" for UK users as well

I have the same issues.

 

Sales Tax Liability Report is wrong if for some reason, the "date paid" doesn't show up in the invoices.

 

How can I manually add "date paid" for the Sales Tax Liability Report to correctly show up?

i have the same problem

 

the date paid shows as the date i added the payment into whmcs, instead of the transaction date.

Tossing a "me too" into this one.... The date the invoice was paid should coincide with the date of the transaction that reduces the amount due to, or less than 0 (for overpayments).

 

The current invoice payment date makes it so that the field is unusable in invoice PDFs, especially for check transactions where the date the check was received and deposited may not match the entry into WHMCS. (Long story - I post process check payments in WHMCS.)

 

FYI - This was 4.2.1, if needed....
