The system allows the subledger posting of invoice dates out of range of processing dates. In one instance, we paid an invoice in 2/20 that had an invoice date of 12/20 - a key in error. This should not have been allowed. The subledger does not agree with the GL control account. We noticed a similar issue in the inventory control system subledger using a ship date.
