When you click New Invoice the pop-up window contains a ‘Date Opened’ field 
that you can set. (the default is ’today’)

The individual line items can be set independently, but that is just for 
reference, those dates have no bearing on when those line items hit your books.

When you post an invoice, you get to set another date, again, either defaulting 
to ’today’ or you can change it. All line items will post as of this date. (if 
you check the box to ‘accumulate splits’ you won’t see the line item detail in 
the relevant accounts, but if you don’t check the box, all line items will show 
in the transactions in the relevant registers)

You also get to set a due date, but if you’ve chosen defined terms, it will be 
calculated for you and you can’t edit it. Simply don’t use terms in the posting 
window (or when you create the invoice) and you’ll be able to set a custom due 
date.

Adrien
