All Respected members,

please educate me that which date should be considered for recording receipt from clinet?

It should be recorded on cheque date or the date on which it received to us ?

For Example:

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common accounting query: when should a client's receipt be recorded? The main point of contention is whether to use the date on the cheque itself or the date the cheque is actually received by the business. Participants debated scenarios involving post-dated cheques and clarified that the receipt date is generally used unless the cheque is post-dated.

If should be day of receipt of the cheque, unless cheque issued post dated.

Cheque received date
Dear Saina and Sandeep,

Thanks both of you for reply of my query.

Dear Saina,

do you mean that if post date cheque received we will consider cheque date for recording?

Dear Saina,

 

Your kind response awaited on above ? 

It will be recorded as checque in hand. Others need not be

Dear Yasaawi,

Thanks for your reply.

Your sentence "others need not be" is not clear to me. please elaborate.

@ Me videos other cases need not be when you didn't receive a check
