====== Set Posting Date ======

~~CONTEXTID:577~~

~~OLDHREF:setpostingdate.html~~

There may be times when you may want to change the **Posting Date** of items sold through **POS**.

Changing the **Posting Date** of an item allows you to control what happens with the **markdown schedule**. For example, if an item has a **markdown schedule** in the **Price Code** schedule for 90 days, and you want to avoid marking down the price to sell the item at full price, you can set the **Posting Date** to an earlier date so when the item is sold and posted in the consignors account, there will be no **markdown**, and the consignor split will remain as it was originally setup.

===== Setting The Posting Date =====

  - From the **POS** Hub, select the **New Sale** button. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3828.png|NewItem3828.png}}
  - Login if required. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3827.png|NewItem3827.png}}
  - When the **POS** opens, select the **More** button. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3829.png|NewItem3829.png}}
  - A small menu will appear, select **Set Posting Date** button. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3830.png|NewItem3830.png}} \\ A **calendar** will open. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3824.png|NewItem3824.png}} \\ You can navigate between the **months** by selecting the arrows at the top of the screen. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3823.png|NewItem3823.png}} \\ Selecting the **Diamond** will bring you back to the current date. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3831.png|NewItem3831.png}} \\ Clicking on the actual **Month** will allow you to select a different month. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3832.png|NewItem3832.png}} \\ Clicking on the **Year** will allow you to choose a different year. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3820.png|NewItem3820.png}}
  - Press the **OK** button when you have selected the date you want to post your items at. \\ {{libertyreact:lib:newitem3833.png|NewItem3833.png}}

The **POS** will show the new posting date you selected.

Note: Once you are done with the current sale, the posting date will revert back to the current date. Remember that changing the **Posting Date** does not change the actual Sale Date. A **Posting Date** is changed for **markdown** purposes, but the sale date on reports will still show the actual date the item sold.
