There is nothing to put a hard limit to the date range of a new transaction. There are tricks such as using the Reconcile feature and entering periodic transactions noting, say, balance as of a date to make errors easier to spot. I seem to recall there being a setting for a warning if entering a transaction date before some value, but now I cannot find it. Perhaps another user can help with that.
