Topic: PaymentReconciliation - paymentDate
Samantha Mater (Nov 09 2020 at 21:40):
In the PaymentReconciliation specification, there is an element called paymentDate. The description is "When payment issued" and the definition is "The date of payment as indicated on the financial instrument". I have both a 'paid date' field and an 'issued date' field in my system, and they're potentially different dates.
Which field would be appropriate based on the description/definition? I'd assume the 'paid date' field based on the element name, but the "when payment issued" description is really throwing me for a loop. Thanks!

What are the definitions in your system for "issued" vs. "paid"? It's hard to know how to map them without knowing what they mean.

Fair enough!
Issued date is when the check was written, paid date is when the check was cashed.

@Samantha Mater Payment date is your issued date, only you know when the funds actually arrived.
