Dear All, I want to know when the purchase entry is to be made for purchase invoice received late or suppose we have forgot to enter the invoice. For e.g. If suppose we have a purchase invoice of April month, but we forgot to enter it in April month and we realized it in the month of June. So my question is, the current month is June month in which we realized that we haven't made the entry which was suppose to me made in April month. So can I entered it in the month of June for the April month. I mean to say If suppose the invoice date is 20-04-2022 and we realized it on 06-06-2022, so can I entered it as dated 20-04-2022 or should I consider the date as 06-06-2022.

You can make back dated entries, however there will be some confusion in the books of accounts. So I would suggest you to make the entry on current date, there is no problem at all.
