Controls whether an operator can change the company and/or temporary dates via the:

• Company Date function (Quick Access Toolbar SYSPRO Run button > Company Date)

• Ctrl+D keyboard shortcut

Company Date

The company date is set company-wide (i.e. applicable to all SYSPRO operators) and indicates the exact day, month and year that is applied to transactions. This date is updated for each single month of the year, typically by your head accountant or financial operations manager.

Temporary Date

The temporary date is exclusively operator specific (i.e. applicable to the operator currently logged in) as it is applied to transactions initiated and posted by the operator currently logged in, for the duration of their current SYSPRO instance or session.

Once the operator logs out or exits SYSPRO, the company date is then used as the default until a temporary date is redefined (when necessary).

This security mechanism also ties into the following Date options as defined within the Operator Maintenance program:

• Allowed to change temporary company date:

  This lets operators use a specific default date for transactions which remains valid until they exit from SYSPRO, or select a different date.

  This is accessed via the Set temporary date and define the New date field.

• Allowed to change company date:

  This lets the operator change the company date in SYSPRO (if the operator is allowed to change the temporary company date).
