If you begin a cart in one month and don\u2019t submit it for approval until the following month, you may receive an error message.\u00a0 You will have to change the period the transaction is billed to before you can submit the cart for approval.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how \u2026<\/p>\n

eShop\u2019s Default Transaction Date<\/h3>\n

By default, transactions will be \u2018billed to\u2019 the period with the date that a cart was created in eShop.\u00a0 This is called the accounting date.\u00a0 For example, I start a cart of office supplies on April 4th<\/sup> (i.e. this is the date that I added the first item to my cart). In this example, the total amount of the cart will be billed to the period containing April 4th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Changing the Transaction Date<\/h3>\n

You have option to choose another date in an open period.<\/p>\n

What is an open period?<\/h3>\n

On the 4th<\/sup> business day of each month, the previous month (also called a period) is closed.\u00a0 eShop will generate an error if you try to choose a date in a closed month.<\/p>\n

How do I change the Transaction Date?<\/h3>\n

When you are checking out, you will see the following menu on the left-hand side of your screen.\u00a0 Click on the \u2018Billing\u2019 Option.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the new window, click on the blue calendar icon to change the ‘Transaction\/Accounting Date’.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Click the red ‘Save’ button to save the new date.<\/p>\n
