In January the RMS customer somehow changed the system date to February. He did not notice that sales in January were recorded in Feb. In February he calls me, the RMS Partner, telling me the system is recording the sales incorrectly and he wants me or Microsoft to give him a new computer. (In a very unpleasant tone) Yelling at me. So I get the proof of what happened. See Microsoft Dynamics Support Incident Number 8810939 : Sales recorded in future dates.
I had a thought about this that I want to share with you. I sell a software package, Garagekeeper 2000; it is a DOS based program that has a internal date. So the user must end the day and reopen with a new date. If the user enters a date that is more that 3 days later than the last closing date the software issues an extra large warning. This might be something to consider for RMS. Perhaps, if a new transaction is dated more than 3 days later that the previous transaction, a warning could be built into the code.
