How to Select a date that's after the date you started tracking inventory item.

Hello there, wellwishglobaldi.

Let's make sure you'll be able to create a transaction using the inventory item you created without receiving a prompt.

Make sure the invoice date or transaction date you select is after the date you set up in the As of date field. Here's a sample screenshot for additional reference:

For example, the inventory as of date is 03/27/2023, we should select a date that comes after that date when creating a transaction.

THIS DOES NOT WORK!!

I appreciate your efforts in following my colleague's resolution, rain. Let me chime into this thread and offer additional information so you can start tracking your inventory.

To proceed, were trying to select a date for your items before you started tracking your inventories? If so, please note that the mentioned warning will appear if the date on the transaction you want to create comes before the As of date. In this case, we verify the starting value of the item and ensure the dates are set up accordingly. Let me show you how: 

1. Go to Products and services. 
2. Locate the item and hit Edit. 
3. From the Quantity on hand section, click Starting value. 
   
4. Hit Got it when prompted.
5. Review the As of date. 
6. If it's incorrect, we can change it. If it's not, leave it as is. 
7. Select Save and close.

However, if you're trying to choose a period after you start tracking, I recommend we perform some basic troubleshooting steps to rule out the possibility of a browser issue. 

We can open your account on an incognito window. Doing so prevents the browser history from being saved. Refer to the following keyboard shortcuts based on your browser type:

• Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Safari: Command + Shift + N

If the private browsing session works, clear the browser's cache so the system can restart. This task is also possible in other supported, up-to-date browsers. Clearing the cache will reboot the system, allowing you to work with a clean slate.
