All distributions with the date you enter or earlier will be passed off to General Ledger from Accounts Payable or Payroll. If you want today's date as the Period Cutoff Date, you can simply leave this field blank. If you are placing General Ledger Passoff (GLP) in a queue, leave this field blank so the system will use the system date as the Period Cutoff Date.
Caution: the system will accept any date in this field. The date does not have to be an end-of-period date from Accounting Period Maintenance (GRMU). Therefore, verify the date you want to use.
