Recently, a staff member noticed some strange things happening with dates when accessing the Ledger for one of our data sets. On July 25th she used March 31st to log in to the Ledger. When she opened a new batch to begin entering journal entries, she noticed that the date in the bottom right corner of the screen was May 31st. The date and fiscal period in her batch was March 31st as expected and it posted to the correct period but the date on the top right hand corner of the posting journal was June 30th.

Any ideas? Anyone else notice something similar?

We did a little trial and error on our end, changing at the bottom right corner of the screen and the date at the top right hand corner or the posting journals appear to be changed when another user logs in with another date during the session.

oops bad grammar ...the date at the bottom right corner...

Hi Sonja,

Just to confirm, are you saying that if the first user signs into Adagio Ledger with one date, and a second user signs into Adagio Ledger with a different date, the date from the second user is affecting the first user?

I've been able to replicate the Posting Journal Date scenario, with two different users accessing Adagio Ledger with different login dates. The reason is that the 'Last Signon Date' is stored in the data, and when the second user logs in with a different date, this overwrites this value for all users. Reports use this Last Signon Date value at the top-right of reports in the Page Header. Today's Date prints in the Page Footer at the bottom-left, along with the time and user.

I have not been able to duplicate a different date in the Status bar, at the bottom-right of the main Ledger program window.

How often to you have multiple people in your Ledger data, logging in with different dates? I'm guessing one person was doing some Year End things for March 31. I ask because it would mean changing every report in Adagio to accommodate multiple users with different sign-on dates, and that's not a small task.

Yes that is the scenario. But on our end the date in the footer changes along with the report date.

We can live with an odd report date now and then Mostly posted this query to the forum out of curiosity and to be sure that it wasn't indicative of a potential integrity error. The data is going to the correct periods when posted, the reports are mostly for internal use and the dates affected are only the header on the report and the footer in the Ledger, from our perspective this is not an issue that warrants an overhaul of every Adagio report Just glad to have an explanation. Thanks for investigating and responding.
