Why is my bill not posting to the local accounting books as well?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

There could be several reasons why your bill is not posting to the local accounting books. Here are some potential solutions based on the provided conversations: 1. Re-saving the Bill: One of the users mentioned that re-saving the bills that are not posting resolved the issue. This could be due to some internal validation or triggers that only execute upon saving the record. 2. Scripting Issues: If you are using a script to confirm bill payments, there could be issues with the script that are preventing the bills from posting. It's recommended to review the script for any errors or unexpected behavior. 3. Posting Period: Ensure that the posting period is open and not locked. If the bill is dated earlier in the year (i.e., in a locked period), the posting period defaults to that period despite the ledgers being closed in account settings. One user suggested using a workflow action script to 'get the earliest posting date' which looked up the accounting periods and returned the start date of the earliest period where AP locked was false. Then within the workflow, if the date was less than the earliest posting date, the date would be updated. 4. Bill Approval Workflow: Another user suggested updating a Bill Approval Workflow to preserve the original Bill Date in a custom field, change the Transaction Date to the current date which posts into the current period, and then copy the original date back to the Transaction Date.
